Orthoregeneration is defined as a solution for orthopaedic conditions that harnesses the benefits of biology to improve healing, reduce pain, improve function, and optimally, provide an environment for tissue regeneration.

Although autologous sources are promising, there is a wide range of limitations with the treatment, including the lack of randomized controlled studies for orthopaedic conditions, donor site morbidity, and highly variable outcomes for patients. Allogenic sources bypass some of these shortcomings and are a promising source for orthopaedic regenerative medicine applications.

A variety of regenerative therapies, including intraarticularly applied hemo-components and cell-based therapies are currently in clinical development and are, in part, in clinical use. Such therapies face several practical opportunities and challenges and could reduce the health care burden, in part by replacing traditional drug therapies and highly invasive surgical interventions with smarter and less invasive treatments.
