ABSTRACT
Emerged health-related problems especially with increasing population and with the wider occurrence of these issues have always put the utmost concern and led medicine to outgrow its usual mode of treatment, to achieve better outcomes. Orthopedic interventions are one of the most concerning hitches, requiring advancement in several issues, that show complications with conventional approaches. Advanced studies have been undertaken to address the issue, among which stem cell therapy emerged as a better area of growth. The capacity of the stem cells to renovate themselves and adapt into different cell types made it possible to implement its use as a regenerative slant. Harvesting the stem cells, particularly mesenchymal stem cells is easier and can be further grown in vitro. In this review, we have discussed orthopedic-related issues including bone defects and fractures, non-unions, ligament and tendon injuries, degenerative changes, and associated conditions, which require further approaches to execute better outcomes, and the advanced strategies that can be tagged along with various ways of application of mesenchymal stem cells. It aims to objectify the idea of stem cells, with a major focus on the application of Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) from different sources in various orthopedic interventions. It also discusses the limitations, and future scopes for further approaches in the field of regenerative medicine. The involvement of mesenchymal stem cells may transition the procedures in orthopedic interventions from predominantly surgical substitution and reconstruction to bio-regeneration and prevention. Nevertheless, additional improvements and evaluations are required to explore the effectiveness and safety of mesenchymal stem cell treatment in orthopedic regenerative medicine.
