Innovative method for knee inflammation
A German study has shown that blocking abnormal blood vessels around the knee joint with a gelatine-based substance significantly and persistently reduces pain and improves joint function in cases of acute inflammation. Relying on the procedure of embolizing the popliteal artery, which involves injecting particles to block the affected vessels via catheter, contributes to reducing inflammation and pain without the need for surgery, after traditional treatments have failed for at least three months. The results demonstrated an improvement in pain levels, decreasing from 7 to 3 over a 12-month period, along with a marked enhancement in quality of life.
