I read a report written by the National Institute of Health and it followed people who had knee replacements, for 10 years. In that time only 13 developed recurrent hema arthrosis. All were treated with genicular artery embolization, GAE. 12 found relief and one died of other causes. My first GAE was partially successful at 75% relief but second GAE made no improvement. Will have another arthroscopic surgery in March. Doctor says 50/50 chance of pain relief.
