Non Invasive Regenerative Techniques Masterclass 3 Lower Limb

Description

This WEBVTT transcript details the proceedings of an online medical conference focusing on regenerative medicine applications in orthopedics, specifically targeting tendinopathies of the lower extremities. The event is hosted by Ortho TV IberoAmerica, with Leonardo Guiloff introducing the speakers and topics. Notable presentations include expert insights on the Achilles tendon by Dr. Christina D'Agostino from Humanitas University, and the use of shockwave therapy in treating various tendon pathologies, including patellar tendinopathy and Ledderhose disease, presented by Dr. Paul Teran.



The speakers discuss current best practices, diagnostic techniques, and treatment protocols including the efficacy of shockwave therapy, its advantages, including pain reduction, and its limitations. They emphasize the importance of accurate diagnosis, patient education, and the combination of different treatment modalities, such as rehabilitation exercises, which are often more effective than isolated therapies. Various studies are cited to support the discussions, demonstrating the need for comprehensive and patient-specific approaches in treating tendinopathies.
