Frequent questions on our work with stem cells (copia)

Let us begin exactly defining a stem cell:

A mesenchymal stem cell is a primitive cell which has the capacity of:

Where are these cells?

They have been isolated form different tissues, including umbilical cord, bone marrow and adipose tissue or body fat.

We work with cells obtained from bone marrow or adipose tissue. .

What are the adult stem cells?

They are cells with capacity of being multiplied, which in addition may develop functional and structural characteristics inherent to specialized tissues, including cartilage, tendons, muscles and ligaments.

Why they are used for management of some illnesses?

Through different mechanisms, these cells have shown to have capacity for regenerating a wide group of ill tissues, in addition to decrease their inflammation and recover adjacent structures, which for, they can lead to meaningful diminution of symptoms, when definitive cure of illness is not possible.

Which illnesses or conditions of joints, bones or muscles, might be treated with stem cells?

The list is quite wide and varied. It includes sport injuries and general traumas, in addition to illnesses with a long evolution which affects big joints as knee, hip and shoulder, long bones such as those in legs and arms, muscles, tendons and ligaments.

How the stem cells are applied?

It depends upon the characteristics of each patient, and different factors influence including, of course, your illness and the severity of the same.

Prototypically, cells are directly applied in affected area, even in particular circumstances, the use of venous applications may be convenient.

Is there any alternative to improve the result of treatment with stem cells?

Yes. In some occasions, we use growing factors of the same patient, which are purified under strictest sterility conditions, to take advantage in the best way of their therapeutic capacities and empowering the effect of the cells.

Which are the possible adverse effects of use these cells? ?

They are really very scarce and little meaningful. Fever, redness and spasms may be experimented in site of application, which disappear in a couple of days with a simple treatment.

Which are the advantages of our procedure?

In installations provided with leading edge technology, we multiply stem cells of the same person, under suitable conditions, which permit to us to make serial applications, so achieving very attractive and consistent therapeutic results.

As to perform a treatment of stem cells a previous evaluation is required by a qualified professional, which will execute an examination in deepness with additional exams as pertinent, as to execute the most adequate treatment as per each pathology or affected area.
