Doctors use stem cells to treat a wide variety of sports injuries, including damage to:
Tendons
Ligaments
Muscles
Cartilage
These injuries may be due to a one-time trauma or chronic overuse.
Direct surgical application. A surgeon may apply stem cells directly to the torn ligament, tendon, or bone being repaired.
Stem-cell bearing sutures. A surgeon may stitch together a torn muscle, ligament, or tendon using a thread-like material that is coated in stem cells. (The suture material itself will dissolve and be absorbed in the body over time.)
Injection. A physician may inject stem cells directly into the affected area.
