Hip Labral Tear Treatment In Miami, FL

4960 Southwest 72nd Avenue, Suite 408 Miami, FL 33155

If you’ve been told a labral tear is causing your hip pain and surgical repair is your only solution, we suggest you evaluate all of your options. And those options extend beyond hip labrum surgery.

At Regenexx, we’ve successfully treated hip labrum tears without surgery. Whether a hip labrum tear is due to an acute injury or a degenerative condition, interventional orthopedic procedures can reduce pain and may help your body use its own abilities to heal hip labrum tears without surgery, resulting in shorter recovery times and fewer potential complications than invasive hip surgeries.

What Are the Risks of Hip Labrum Surgery?

Unfortunately, hip labrum surgery is often unsuccessful. In fact, in one 2014 study, 45% of patients who underwent arthroscopic hip surgery for labral tears had poor results within, on average, only five years after surgery.1 

Orthopedic surgeons may not tell you this, but surgical “cleanup” of a labral tear means removing part of the labrum, which can ultimately result in degeneration and osteoarthritis in the joint.

Dan Marin, MD grew up as an athlete in the outdoor sunshine, playing every stick and ball sport possible as a kid. When not doing that he was fishing and diving in the South Florida Paradise.

His fascination with this environment, lead him to high school at MAST Academy where he excelled in Science and Math. In sport, he migrated toward rowing where he was a stand out leader and athlete. He was recruited to row in college, and was a division, 1A varsity collegiate rower at College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, Massachusetts.

His interest in science and the human condition led him to obtain his first degree in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Miami, where his lab work focused on protein analysis of intercellular GAP junctions. He wanted to be engaged with humans and science, which drove him to medical school at the University of Miami, where he was accepted and matriculated.

His interest in the surgical and medical side of being a physician led him to a transitional internship at Yale New Haven Hospital.

His interest in sport, biomechanics, and treating “the whole human” led him to residency in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, Georgia, where he excelled and was elected Chief by his peers and faculty.

Spending much time as a resident at the world renowned Emory Orthopedic & Spine Center, and being exposed to mentors like Michael Schaufele MD and Kenneth Mautner MD, led him to a fellowship and career focusing on Interventional Spine, Sports and Non-Operative Care. While there he performed and published research in the area of outpatient interventional outcomes and safety.

Eventually, after being a faculty member at the University of South Florida in the Department of Neurosurgery, as well as consulting and in development of the arena of the human component in Motorsport; he and his wife moved back to South Florida where Dr. Marin, began private practice. Here he had the great opportunity to form a clinic based the musculoskeletal model/ chain, of which we all naturally live by. This was the foundation of ProformMD.

Dr Marin believes “deep down, we are all athletes, our cells/ body, want us to exercise, and this is the key to longevity… it’s our job as clinicians to provide the tools and remove obstacles for our patients to meet their goals and live better.” His professional directive has been to build an environment with all the highest quality professionals to accomplish this task.

Dr Marin has said, “When someone suffers an initial injury this can be an obstacle for function for the rest of their life.”

Proform ACTIV, aka ACTIV, was started to address this specific issue. Knowledge of regenerative tissue science and use of Orthobiologics through interventional orthopedic techniques to un impede patients and put them on the path to recovery is the philosophy of this component of the clinic. This is the first step to get back to your “athletic-self” if you have encountered injury, degenerative wear, or overuse. After treatment, focus can then be on getting back into normal motion, and then on raising the performance bar.

Dr Marin remains passionate everyday about making his patients the best musculoskeletal version of themselves science, technology and training can provide.

He attended Georgetown University in Washington, DC where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Physics with a minor in Mathematics. After college, he earned his Doctor of Medicine from Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia, PA. He completed an internship in Internal Medicine at Cooper University Hospital in Camden, NJ, and subsequently he completed Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation residency at the Temple University Hospital and Moss Rehab program in Philadelphia, PA where he was elected Chief Resident during his final year of training. Following residency, he pursued a fellowship in Spine, Sports, and Musculoskeletal Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, PA. Dr. Bonner is board certified in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation by the American Board of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation. He is also board certified in Pain Medicine by the American Board of Pain Medicine.

In his practice, he provides comprehensive, interventional spine and musculoskeletal care. He performs ultrasound-guided and fluoroscopically-guided interventional procedures for various causes of pain. He has taken a special interest in the exercise-based rehabilitation of spine and musculoskeletal injuries and uses his knowledge of these methods to provide patients with long term solutions to their ailments.

How Does Regenexx Work?

At Regenexx, we invented a new approach to orthopedic care we call Interventional Orthopedics. This minimally invasive alternative to hip surgery involves the use of image guidance technology to precisely inject your own bone marrow concentrate — which contains stems cells — directly where it’s needed to repair damaged tissue in the hip joint structure.2-3 

The cells in your bone marrow concentrate work at the site of your injury to promote the growth of new, healthy tissue that aids in the stabilization of your hip joint for better function and mobility.4

Am I a candidate?

Note: Like all medical procedures, Regenexx procedures have success and failure rates. Not all patients will experience the same results.

During appointments, Regenexx physicians examine your body in motion and may use ultrasound to observe the inner workings of the hip in real time. This gives them a more accurate picture of what’s contributing to your pain, how function is affected, and the root cause of the problem. 

Once you’ve been evaluated, your physician will customize a treatment plan based on your specific needs. Our treatments include:

Regenexx-SD: a patented protocol using bone marrow concentrate that contains stem cells

Regenexx-SCP: a proprietary formulation of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) that’s more concentrated than what a basic bedside centrifuge can produce

Regenexx-PL: platelet lysate, which is a highly specialized derivative of platelet-rich plasma (PRP)

Take a look at the outcomes of a patient who chose to have a Regenexx procedure instead of surgery.

Scroll to the right to see the MRI of the hip before treatment and to the left to see the outcome. The BEFORE image shows a torn labrum (the triangle-shape space inside the dashed yellow circle). Once treated, the area as seen on the AFTER image will be almost uniformly dark, indicating no tear or a significantly improved tear.
