Regenerative orthopaedics implies that damaged tissues within orthopaedics are encouraged to regenerate rather than using foreign materials to replace them.
The developing world of regenerative orthopaedics
Although many of the interventions of regenerative orthopaedics have been around for a decade or two, it is only recently that the concept has been firmly recognised and the discipline clearly differentiated into regenerative medicine and regenerative surgery. The former implies the injection of regenerative materials into tissues and joints, while the latter involves surgical implantation of scaffolds and cells in addition to other regenerative materials such as growth factors.
