Emerging Orthobiologic Techniques and the Future

Kevin Christensen et al. Clin Sports Med. 2019 Jan.

Abstract

The future of orthopedic surgery appears to be intimately associated with the development of orthobiologics to facilitate healing and the treatment of multiple disease processes. The orthopedic community should understand developmental processes to ensure that products are adequately studied and the effects are fully known before widespread implementation in the clinical setting. Technologies that embrace this paradigm will impact the field the most.
