In recent years, there have been a number of exciting advances in biologic and nanoarthroscopic approaches in sports medicine, giving the clinician even more options for safe and effective minimally invasive treatments for the active patient. This practical text presents these breakthrough techniques in detail and describes the authors experiences and lessons learned.
This book is broken into two main sections. The first section presents the history of the use of biologics in sports medicine and will have several chapters describing novel techniques using platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and bone marrow concentrate (BMC), all-inside allograft ACL reconstruction, minimally invasive quad tendon harvest with endoscopic closure, and cartilage transfer (ACT) using an autologous tissue collector, among others.
