Abstract
Osteoarthritis, predominantly of the knee, is a highly prevalent disease leading to pain, reduced quality of life, and significantly reduced ability to work. With autologous orthobiologic options, new regenerative treatment methods have emerged, offering an alternative to early surgical intervention. Supercharged Liparthroplasty combines arthroscopy with lipoaspirate and plasma infiltration of the joint. Lipoaspirate contains high levels of adipose-derived stem cells, which show chondroprotective and anti-inflammatory qualities. Intra-articular injection, combined with platelet-rich plasma administration for accelerated cartilage metabolism, thus provides an optional approach in osteoarthritis treatment. This article aims to provide in detail our regimen for Supercharged Liparthroplasty, including tissue harvesting and preparation of the injectables, therefore enabling physicians to adopt this point-of-care technique.
