Knee osteoarthritis can leave patients trapped between treatments that no longer control their symptoms and joint replacement surgery they cannot or do not want to undergo. A new study examines a minimally invasive procedure designed to occupy that difficult middle ground.

Researchers at Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin followed nearly 200 patients after genicular artery embolization using rapidly dissolving particles.
