Genicular Artery Embolization: Effective Relief for Knee Pain at Flowcare

Genicular Artery Embolization (GAE) is an innovative procedure that offers relief for patients suffering from chronic knee pain, particularly those with osteoarthritis. By targeting the genicular arteries, which supply blood to the knee joint, this minimally invasive technique aims to reduce inflammation and pain. What is Genicular Artery Embolization? GAE involves the selective occlusion of the genicular arteries using embolic agents, leading to a reduction in blood flow to the affected area. This process decreases inflammation, which is a major contributor to knee pain. The procedure is performed by interventional radiologists and typically takes less than an hour, allowing patients to return home the same day. Benefits of GAE One of the primary advantages of Genicular Artery Embolization is its non-surgical nature. Unlike traditional surgical options, GAE is less invasive, which means a shorter recovery time and fewer complications. Many patients report significant pain relief within a few days, making it an appealing option for those seeking alternatives to joint replacement surgery or long-term medication use.
