Cartilage Transplantation
Dr. Vahid Vahabzadeh – Orthopedic & Trauma Surgeon
Cartilage damage in the knee or hip can cause persistent pain, swelling, and reduced joint function. Unlike arthritis-related conditions, cartilage injuries often affect younger or physically active patients and may worsen over time if left untreated.
Cartilage transplantation in Germany is a specialized surgical option aimed at restoring damaged cartilage and preserving the natural joint. Dr. Vahid Vahabzadeh offers cartilage transplantation based on precise diagnosis, international medical standards, and a patient-specific treatment plan.
When Is Cartilage Transplantation Considered?
Cartilage transplantation may be considered in patients with:
Localized cartilage defects in the knee or hip
Persistent joint pain during activity or weight-bearing
Swelling or catching sensations in the joint
Cartilage damage caused by sports injuries or trauma
Symptoms that do not improve with physiotherapy or injections
Early-stage joint degeneration without advanced arthritis
