Genicular Arterial Embolization (GAE) is a minimally invasive treatment for chronic knee pain, especially due to osteoarthritis. It works by reducing abnormal inflammation in the knee by blocking tiny blood vessels that contribute to pain, helping improve mobility and quality of life without major surgery.
GAE is done by an Interventional Radiologist under imaging guidance. A small tube (catheter) is inserted through a tiny puncture, usually in the groin or wrist, and guided to the arteries supplying the knee. Tiny particles are then injected to reduce excess blood flow causing inflammation and pain. The procedure is typically done under local anaesthesia, and patients usually go home the same day.
At IRCC Pakistan, our experienced Interventional Radiology team provides advanced, image-guided GAE treatment for knee pain. We focus on precise treatment, minimal discomfort, quick recovery, and improved mobility — helping you return to daily activities with less pain and without major surgery.
