How a Regenerative Foot & Ankle Procedure Really Works: 11 Sections, 1 Symphony | Trevor Turner, MD

The foot and ankle is the most mechanically complex region in the body — and the region where the regenerative-medicine evidence is the most uneven. In this series finale, Dr. Trevor Turner, MD, DABPMR walks through the eleven-section, eighteen-target foot and ankle ensemble and gives an unusually honest read on where the evidence is strong, where it is emerging, and — the part most content leaves out — where it is actually negative. Strongly supported: PRP for plantar fasciitis and BMAC for osteochondral lesions of the talus. Favorable case-series: partial ATFL injuries. Emerging: peroneal tendinopathy and tarsal tunnel nerve hydrodissection. Controversial/negative: intra-articular PRP for tibiotalar osteoarthritis. Mostly negative: chronic Achilles tendinopathy.
