Interventional Orthopedics
Interventional Orthopedics
Interventional orthopedics is a new way to address musculoskeletal problems that were previously treated with conventional open or arthroscopic surgery. The goals of the treatment are to stimulate and enhance repair of the torn and degenerative ligaments, tendons, discs without causing collateral damage. The treatments are minimally invasive and involve precise delivery of the active biologics to the injured site using image guidance. The extensive science behind the treatment suggests that in the right environment, precisely delivered biologics and growth factors induce tissue repair and reduce pain. Dr. Menkin is skilled in performing such procedures and has years of experience and a cohort of grateful patients.
