Be Fit Malaysians #12: Stem Cells for Cartilage Repair
Dr. Harjeet Singh, Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon
Damage and degeneration of the cartilage can cause excruciating pain and diminish your quality of life, especially when it occurs in the knee. But stem cell therapy research and trials have shown that stem cells are able to help with cartilage regeneration. To help us find out more about the research that is being done here in Malaysia are Dr Harjeet Singh, consultant orthopaedic surgeon, and Dato’ Dr Badrul Akmal Hisham Md Yusoff, senior lecturer and head of arthroscopy and sports trauma unit at UKM.
