Orthopaedic Surgery

Overview

We are conducting research into regenerative medicine concerning the articular cartilage and spinal cord using stem cells and cytokines, molecular biological research into the developmental mechanism of low back pain and its desensitization, and the development and research of knee joint prostheses with good durability. Both our basic and clinical research into enthesopathy using shock waves is globally accepted. We have started a voluntary clinical trial of the administration of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) to spinal cord injury patients, based on the basic data indicating that G-CSF is effective for spinal cord injuries in animal model.
