Adipose-derived stem cells (ADSC) may be beneficial to patients with OA because they may differentiate into chondrocytes, promote endogenous tissue repair, and have potent anti-inflammatory properties. Early studies show promising clinical results using ADSCs to treat patients with osteoarthritis, but no clinical trials have been completed comparing cellular therapy to standard arthroscopic treatment. The investigators aim to determine whether ADSC transplantation as adjuvant therapy in patients with arthroscopic findings of mild to moderate arthritis will result in improved clinical outcomes scores at one and two-year follow-up compared to standard arthroscopic treatment.
