BMAC Knee Surgery

London Cartilage Clinic

BMAC (Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate) knee surgery is a state-of-the-art regenerative treatment offered at the London Cartilage Clinic. This innovative approach uses the patient's own bone marrow cells to promote healing and regeneration in the knee, providing an effective solution for various knee conditions, including osteoarthritis and sports-related injuries.

The Process of BMAC Knee Surgery

The BMAC procedure involves harvesting bone marrow from the patient, concentrating the cells, and then injecting them into the knee joint. This process aims to harness the body's natural healing abilities, encouraging tissue regeneration and reducing inflammation. The procedure is minimally invasive, performed under local anesthesia, and typically requires a short recovery period.

Advantages of BMAC Knee Surgery

BMAC knee surgery offers several benefits, including reduced recovery time compared to traditional knee surgeries, minimized pain and discomfort, and a lower risk of complications. The treatment is particularly beneficial for patients seeking an alternative to more invasive surgical procedures, and those looking to accelerate their recovery process.

Knee Cartilage Risk After a Partial ACL Tear

Instability from a partial ACL tear—not the tear grade—drives cartilage damage by allowing cumulative abnormal movement that concentrates force on cartilage surfaces not designed for that loading.

Mosaicplasty for Talar Osteochondral Lesions

Because the ankle bears full body weight across a small articular surface, even modest cartilage lesions impose disproportionate load, causing persistent pain unresponsive to physiotherapy. Mosaicplasty transplants living hyaline cartilage; at ten years it outperforms microfracture because true cartilage withstands load better than the fibrocartilage scar tissue created by stimulation techniques.

ChondroFiller for Focal Knee Cartilage Defects After Injury

Focal cartilage lesions frequently accompany ACL and meniscus injuries, often left unaddressed as defects enlarge toward osteoarthritis; an injectable collagen scaffold produces mean functional gains of 30 points, exceeding the threshold at which patients report meaningful change.
