However, Professor Paul Lee, a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon at London Cartilage Clinic, assures that with the latest regeneration techniques, golfers can return to the course within days. Golf may be low-impact, but it still carries risks, with up to 18% of golfers having sustained knee injuries. Meniscus tears are a common knee injury among golfers, but early diagnosis and treatment can lead to swift recovery. Professor Lee specializes in advanced surgical techniques, including partial knee resurfacing, which allows for quicker recovery and retains natural knee movement. With expert care at London Cartilage Clinic, golfers can get back to the sport they love.

Microfracture Doom to FailMicrofracture surgery, commonly used to repair damaged knee cartilage, is often questioned for its long-term success. This article explores why microfracture surgery fails and discusses alternatives for cartilage repair such as autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), mosaicplasty, and mesenchymal stromal cells.

This article explores why microfracture surgery fails and discusses alternatives for cartilage repair such as autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), mosaicplasty, and mesenchymal stromal cells. The limitations of microfracture surgery include the body's struggle to balance between durable healing and repeated injury, resulting in the breakdown of repair tissue over time. Additionally, the articular cartilage's limited capacity to heal leads to pain recurrence and post-traumatic arthritis. Long-term outcomes vary, with a risk of osteoarthritis progression in older patients. Alternatives like ACI and mosaicplasty show promise, although ACI has a high reoperation rate. Mesenchymal stromal cells are also being considered for enhancing cartilage repair.

Advancements in Arthroscopic Techniques for Joint PreservationArthroscopy has revolutionised joint preservation techniques, allowing surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures with greater precision and less trauma to surrounding tissues. This article explores the advancements in arthroscopic surgery, such as rotator cuff repair, meniscal repair and transplantation, cartilage restoration, ligament reconstruction, and joint preservation in early arthritis. These…Arthroscopy has revolutionised joint preservation techniques, allowing surgeons to perform minimally invasive procedures with greater precision and less trauma to surrounding tissues. This article explores the advancements in arthroscopic surgery, such as rotator cuff repair, meniscal repair and transplantation, cartilage restoration, ligament reconstruction, and joint preservation in early arthritis. These advanced techniques result in reduced surgical trauma, increased precision and safety, faster rehabilitation, and improved long-term outcomes. As arthroscopic techniques continue to evolve, they offer hope for improved quality of life and extended joint health for patients with joint injuries and early arthritis.
