Transcatheter Arterial Embolization in Patients With Mild to Moderate Osteoarthritis

NCT05013970 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Disabling symptoms of osteoarthritis are seen in approximatively 10% of people over 55 years old. Many patients suffer from persistent pain symptoms from moderate osteoarthritis despite optimal medical treatment. For these patients, several minimally-invasive surgical treatments have been proposed, including arthroscopic lavage and debridement; however, none of these treatments have been proven effective compared to sham treatment.

Recently, catheter-directed embolotherapy of the geniculate arteries has been propagated as a real alternative to medical management in patients with mild to moderate knee osteoarthritis unresponsive to conservative medical management.
