Description
Cong-Zi Wu and a large team test whether adding treated body fat to keyhole surgery helps worn knees, in a trial report from 2023. Knee osteoarthritis is the most common joint-wearing disease. Before replacement, arthroscopy is the usual joint-saving step, and regenerative options like microfragmented fat tissue are gaining ground.
The trial ran in ten hospitals in Zhejiang, China, from 2017 to 2022. It enrolled 302 patients with moderate knee wear. Half got the fat treatment after arthroscopy; half got hyaluronic acid instead. Over 24 months, the fat group improved more on joint function scores, pain ratings, and a stiffness index. MRI-based joint scores and safety were also tracked. The authors present the fat add-on as a stronger mid-term option.
