A Biologic Alternative for ACL Repair
Video 1: https://youtu.be/wQEeeCrzFGE
Typical ski - associated proximal ACL tear at ~10 days.
"Needle" arthroscopic view, after MRI confirmation.
Note the hemarthrosis/healing environment, preserved by the closed Nanoscope technique, and the generally well-aligned ligament (except for the partial PL flap).
Middle-aged female, occasional recreational athlete, strongly desired "conservative" care.Video 2: https://youtu.be/aaviAHjYEm0
BMC injected with an 18 ga spinal needle into multiple proximal ligament attachment sites. Note the "closed" Nanoscope system (without outflow), capturing both intra-ligament and intra-articular BMC/PPP products.
Patient is immobilized in slight flexion/allowed gentle PROM and protected weight-bearing for 3 weeks.
Firm endpoint at 6 wks.
