Orthobiologics
Setting a new standard for patient care, Kayal Osteoarthritis & Orthobiologics Center stands on the cutting edge of regenerative medicine. Orthobiologics is an advanced field in which human growth factors and proteins are used to stimulate tissue healing and regeneration. Used in patients dealing with osteoarthritis, sports injuries, chronic joint pain, and other orthopaedic conditions, these naturally occurring biomaterials—like bone marrow aspirate, platelet rich plasma / autologous conditioned plasma, and recombinant human bone morphogenetic protein (rhBMP)—can relieve pain, reduce swelling, and restore mobility. In some cases, orthobiologics may be used to put off or eliminate the need for more invasive surgical procedures and joint replacements.
Since orthobiologics got its start, Dr. Robert A. Kayal, MD, FAAOS and his surgical team have been using these non-operative methods with great success. While orthobiologics is still a relatively new area of study, clinical research is continually discovering new ways to implement these advanced treatments.
Dr. Robert A. Kayal, MD, FAAOS and the team at Kayal Osteoarthritis & Orthobiologics Center specialize in the use of non-invasive biologic therapies for patients suffering from sports injuries, osteoarthritis, chronic joint pain, musculoskeletal injuries, diabetic ulcers, non-healing wounds, and more. Orthobiologics offer a “fast track” to healing and pain relief, and have proven successful for hundreds of patients.
Orthobiologics are cellular therapies used in place of or in conjunction with other therapies and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). In some cases, biologics even allow patients to delay or eliminate the need for surgical intervention. Injected or grafted into damaged and diseased areas, biologics work by harnessing the body’s ability to regenerate cells for tissue healing and injury rehabilitation. Pioneering the use of orthobiologics within New Jersey and the surrounding area, Dr. Kayal and his surgical team are on the cutting edge of these innovative procedures.
NJ Orthobiologics Services
Biologics are revolutionizing the future of orthopaedic treatment. At Kayal Osteoarthritis & Orthobiologics Center, we are at the forefront of biomedical research and are committed to continual innovation in our field. Cutting-edge orthobiologics services include:
- Platelet-rich plasma (PRP) therapy / autologous conditioned plasma (ACP) therapy
- Viscosupplementation
- Stem cell harvesting
- Bone marrow concentrate (BMC)
- DermACELL®
- FlexiGRAFT®
- StimuBlast™
- BioCartilage®
Most biologics are administered with an injection or series of injections into the damaged area, while some require tissue grafting. In most cases, your surgeon will use fluoroscopy or ultrasound technology to guide injection placement. Based upon your medical history and symptoms, your doctor will recommend the best course of treatment for your needs.
