- Abstract
The incidence of musculoskeletal injuries are the most common injuries that occur in exercise practice. These injuries can involve many different tissues such as muscles, tendons, ligaments, meniscus, bone or cartilage. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are the most common athletic injury that occurs in the world, occupies up to 50% of the incidence of knee injury. Optimal healing process has become a consideration in choosing the most suitable management especially for professional athletes as well as their teams. Many recent studies in the management of musculoskeletal injuries is currently been developed from basic molecular level, experimental studies until clinical application in patients. The application of stem cells therapy becomes a great interest in ACL injury. The ability of stem cells to undergo multilineage differentiation into a variety of cell types is expected to have great potential in the process of repair and regeneration of musculoskeletal injury. The purpose of this review is to summarize the latest developments in the application of stem cell therapy and its safety and effectiveness in ACL injury.
