Orthobiologics Podcast

The Orthobiologics Podcast was born to separate fact from fiction in the branch of regenerative medicine where Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP), Stem Cells (BMAC), and Prolotherapy are used to improve Orthopedic outcomes with lower risk. Whether used in place of surgery or in combination with surgery, evidence-based Orthobiologics can help athletes with new injuries, weekend warriors with old injuries, or even elderly patients with degenerative conditions like arthritis enhance their function and improve the quality of their life.

March 18, 2021 • Trevor Turner MD, RMSK • Season 3 • Episode 2

In this episode, our host Dr. Trevor Turner, RMSK discusses whether stem cells and PRP can heal ACL tears without surgery in an interview with Dr. Rowan Paul (https://regencoremethod.com/), a Sports Medicine specialist in San Francisco, CA.

In this episode, we discuss key concepts such as: who needs surgery and who is a candidate for ACL injection with stem cells or PRP? How common are ACL tears and what happens to the knee moving forward? How are we changing the way we treat ACL tears both in and out of the OR, and how do we prevent future injuries and cartilage decline? What are future directions of the field?
