Refractory Knee Osteoarthritis: Adipose-Derived Stromal Cells Versus Bone Marrow Aspiration Concentrate

A 56-year-old woman presents to the clinic with a long history of right knee pain. The pain began insidiously 4 years prior and she reports a slow progression in pain and decrease in her function. She has been treated with oral analgesics and anti-inflammatories. In addition, she is currently enrolled in her third round of physical therapy. Last year she had an intra-articular corticosteroid injection, which gave her about 6 weeks of relief. Following this, she underwent a series of 3 hyaluronic acid injections (SupartzFX) that she completed 3 months ago.
