Description
Inclusion Criteria:
We intend to include patients who meet the following criteria in the study:
- Patients aged 40-80
- Bilateral or Unilateral knee pain attributed to osteoarthritis
- Grade 1-3 Osteoarthritis as diagnosed on standing weight-bearing knee radiographs per the Kellen-Lawrence Grading scale
- Knee pain >6 months refractory to conservative medical management (NSAIDs, paracetamol, intra-articular injections, physiotherapy/exercise, weight loss, etc.)
Exclusion Criteria:
We plan to exclude patients who meet any of the following criteria:
- Active malignancy
- Active infection of the affected knee
- Platelets <50,000
- INR >1.8 (unless on anticoagulation that can be reversed)
- Corticosteroid injection of the affected knee within 3 months
- Rheumatoid arthritis or other seronegative arthropathy
- Previous surgery (excluding arthroscopy) of the affected knee
- Grade 4 per Kellgren-Lawrence Grading Scale of the affected knee
- Pregnancy or expected pregnancy
- GFR <30
- Anaphylactic reaction to iodinated contrast
- Moderate to severe pain in other lower limb joints
- Body weight >400 lbs. (Procedure table weight limit)

Patients who meet study eligibility will be scheduled to undergo the Genicular Artery Embolization procedure and will subsequent be followed for 12 months after their procedure.

Genicular artery embolization (GAE) is a new, minimally invasive investigational not yet approved therapy. In previous studies, this procedure has provided pain relief in patients with mild to moderate OA in the short to midterm. We will be utilizing the Terumo Hydropearl® microspheres particle beads during the GAE procedures. The procedure will take place utilizing fluoroscopic and ultrasound guidance. Following catheterization of the femoral artery, angiography of the affected limb will be performed to define the genicular arterial anatomy. Genicular arteries demonstrating abnormal vascularity and corresponding to the site of the patient's pain will be catheterized and embolized using microspheres. Prior to and after embolization, parametric imaging will be performed utilizing proprietary software to quantify changes in blood flow to the target area The intended use of the Terumo Hydropearl® microspheres device is to embolize the geniculate artery branch. |
