Stem Cell Therapy: A Cutting-Edge Option for Elbow Dysplasia Relief
At the Elbow Clinic, we are proud to offer stem cell therapy, a treatment that significantly enhances the comfort of dogs suffering from elbow dysplasia and osteoarthritis. This innovative approach underscores our commitment to providing the latest and most effective treatments in veterinary medicine.
Understanding Stem Cell Therapy
Stem cell therapy involves using your dog's own cells to promote healing and reduce discomfort in joints affected by elbow dysplasia or osteoarthritis. The process begins with harvesting a fat sample from your dog. This can be done during an arthroscopy procedure, or as a standalone short surgical procedure. This fat tissue is then sent to the lab for culturing.
After the stem cells are isolated and cultured, usually within 2-4 weeks, we reintroduce them into your dog's affected joint under sedation. This method targets the affected area directly, using the body's natural healing mechanisms to improve joint function and alleviate pain.
The Benefits of Our Approach
One of the key advantages of our stem cell therapy is its minimal invasiveness. After the initial fat tissue harvest during arthroscopy, there's no need for repeated tissue collection. Your dog’s stem cells are stored safely in our lab, ready for future injections if necessary. This approach not only reduces stress for your pet but also streamlines the treatment process, allowing for easier, ongoing management of their condition.
