The condition, called avascular necrosis, is when the flow of blood to the bones is cut off or reduced. It can be caused by a trauma, such as a broken joint or certain kinds of cancer therapy; certain conditions, such as sickle cell disease; and\/or fat deposits in blood vessels. Avascular necrosis can lead to fractures. Daniel Wiznia, MD, the Yale surgeon who has developed this surgery, compares the fracture to a delicate dinner plate. \u201cOver time, the glaze of a plate will form cracks. And eventually, it will break. Bones work in the same way. Our blood provides nourishment to our bones, so that the cells within them can repair those cracks,\u201d Dr. Wiznia explains. \u201cBut if the bones don\u2019t have that blood supply, they can\u2019t regenerate and fix the fractures.\u201d And that\u2019s where stem cells come into play. Stem cells in our bone marrow can regenerate new blood vessels, muscle, and bone. \u201cBecause we&#039;re able to replace injured bone with fresh bone, you may not need a more invasive procedure, such as a joint replacement,\u201d Dr. Wiznia says. For the procedure, Dr. Wiznia takes bone marrow from a patient\u2019s pelvis and isolates the stem cells. He creates a 3-D model of the patient\u2019s hip joint so that he can precisely target the areas where bone is dead. He then removes some of the dead bone and injects stem cells\u2014and places a bone graft\u2014into those regions. \u201cThe treatment is a game-changer because we are targeting an avascular necrosis lesion, which prevents the need for a hip replacement,\u201d Dr. Wiznia says.<\/p>\n<p>0:00 &#8211; Stem Cells<br \/>\n0:41 &#8211; Avascular Necrosis: Bone Tissue Death<br \/>\n1:41 &#8211; Targeted Stem Cell Therapy<\/p>\n<div class=\"vpe_-video-url\">\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How Stem Cells Can Treat Avascular Necrosis - Yale Medicine Explains\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/h8xSmK7yo20?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3UgPwxr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/deals-here.com\/stem-cell-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1451\/2024\/04\/Copy-of-Header-Banner-930x100-px.png\" alt=\"stem cell therapy\" width=\"930\" height=\"100\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-245\" srcset=\"https:\/\/deals-here.com\/stem-cell-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1451\/2024\/04\/Copy-of-Header-Banner-930x100-px.png 930w, https:\/\/deals-here.com\/stem-cell-therapy\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/1451\/2024\/04\/Copy-of-Header-Banner-930x100-px-768x83.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 930px) 100vw, 930px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For more information on Avascular Necrosis or #YaleMedicine, visit: https:\/\/www.yalemedicine.org\/news\/stem-cells-can-treat-avascular-necrosis.
