allograft cartilage transplantation

Allograft cartilage transplantation involves transferring healthy cartilage tissue from a donor to repair damaged cartilage in a patient's joint. This procedure aims to restore joint surface smoothness, reduce pain, and improve function, especially in cases of cartilage injuries or degeneration. The donor tissue is carefully processed to minimize rejection risk. The transplanted cartilage integrates with the patient’s existing tissue, helping to restore normal joint movement. This technique is often used for larger cartilage defects and can delay or prevent the need for joint replacement surgery.
