Suffering from cartilage defects that affect movement or cause joint pain? Mosaicplasty involves transplanting small cylindrical plugs of healthy cartilage to damaged areas, helping restore smooth joint surfaces. At Kulkarni Orthopaedic and Surgical Centre in Bangalore, Dr. Jayateerth Kulkarni uses this technique for patients with focal cartilage damage, particularly in the knee joint.
Advantages of this method include:
- Durable, natural tissue restoration
- Ideal for younger patients with isolated defects
- Minimally invasive technique
- Reduces pain and improves joint function
Dr. Jayateerth Kulkarni ensures donor site selection and precise plug placement using arthroscopic tools, resulting in better load distribution and smoother joint motion. This technique can delay the onset of arthritis and enhance long-term joint health, making it a reliable option for select patients.
