Home › Blog › New Original Research: A Stem Cell Injection Can Be a Non-healing Fracture Surgery Alternative

Stem cell injections are indeed a good non-healing fracture surgery alternative.  As I have always said, when we have enough data we publish our work in the peer-reviewed medical literature. This makes us very different than just about any clinic using stem cells to treat orthopedic injuries. We have been treating non-healing fractures with stem cells as a non-healing fracture surgery alternative for the past 5 years and have had great success. Rather than getting a monster-sized surgery where the non-healing fracture is broken again and then a bone graft is inserted with more hardware, our patients get an injection of their own stem cells into these fracture lines without any surgery. How does this work? Our most recent publication of Regenexx-C fracture patients in the Journal of Bio-engineering and Bio-medical Science makes the case that it works very well.
