Designed with the practicing clinician in mind, Biologics in Orthopaedic Surgery provides a succinct, easy-to-digest overview of the integration of biologics (platelet-rich-plasma [PRP], bone marrow aspirate [BMA], and stem cells) into today’s orthopaedic practice. Covering relevant basic science as well as clinical applications, this concise reference takes a head-to-toe approach to the emerging role of orthobiologics for specific conditions and procedures, in addition to future directions for implementation.

Key Features

Bridges the gap between research and the clinical setting, providing guidance on using recent transformative discoveries in real-world practice.
Covers applications in sports medicine, general orthopaedics, and musculoskeletal oncology.

Addresses specific key topics such as FDA regulations and impact, rotator cuff augmentation, osteoarthritis, meniscal transplantation, regenerative engineering, and much more.

Consolidates today’s available information on this timely topic into one convenient resource.
