Carticel
One of the most difficult surgical challenges facing orthopedists has been trying to treat patients who have lost portions of cartilage in their knees but are too young or too active for a total knee replacement. The Carticel procedure provides a safe means of culturing and multiplying the patient's own cartilage cells that are then reimplanted in the patient. Another advanced treatment option provided by RVO physicians!
Computer Assist
RVO is pleased to partner with St. Mary’s Hospital in the use of computer assist technology for total joint replacement. The computer assist helps ensure that joints are perfectly aligned for the best functional outcome possible. Just another example of RVO leading the way for orthopedic treatment!
