The Efficacy of Bone Marrow Stem Cell Therapy in Hip Osteoarthritis: A Scoping Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Hip osteoarthritis (HOA) is a prevalent degenerative joint disease with various treatment approaches. Biological agents, such as bone-marrow derived stem cells (BM-MSC) therapy, have recently been proposed as a treatment option in the management of HOA.
