Genicular Artery Embolisation

Knee Pain Treatment in Yeshwanthpur

Genicular Artery Embolisation (GAE) is a cutting-edge, minimally invasive procedure that alleviates chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis (OA). Osteoarthritis results from the gradual breakdown of cartilage in the knee joint, leading to inflammation, stiffness, and persistent pain. In many cases, patients rely on painkillers, steroid injections, or even surgery, like knee replacement, when conservative treatments fail. GAE offers a compelling alternative by targeting the abnormal blood vessels responsible for inflammation and pain, reducing discomfort while preserving joint function.

The procedure involves inserting a microcatheter into the femoral artery and guiding it to the genicular arteries, which supply blood to the inflamed knee joint. Under fluoroscopic guidance, tiny embolic particles are injected to selectively block these abnormal blood vessels, decreasing inflammation and pain. Since the treatment preserves the existing joint structure, patients experience relief without the risks associated with major surgery. Most patients notice significant pain reduction within weeks, with sustained benefits lasting for months or even years. GAE has shown promising success in improving mobility and quality of life, making it an excellent option for individuals seeking long-term pain management without surgical intervention. Side effects are minimal, with most patients resuming daily activities within days. Our expert interventional radiologists provide precise and safe genicular artery embolisation, ensuring effective pain relief for osteoarthritis patients.

Below are the key procedures under genicular artery embolisation:

  • Targeted Pain Relief: Blocks abnormal blood vessels to reduce knee inflammation and pain.

  • Minimally Invasive Approach: Performed via a microcatheter, avoiding surgical incisions and prolonged recovery.

  • Fluoroscopy-Guided Precision: Ensures accurate embolisation of the affected arteries for optimal results.

  • Alternative to Surgery: Provides long-term relief without knee replacement or invasive procedures.

  • Quick Recovery: Most patients resume normal activities within a few days with minimal discomfort.
