Brief Summary:
Wharton Jelly derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells (WJMSC) will be injected in patients diagnosed with Knee osteoarthrosis

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Knee Osteoarthrosis Biological: Wharton Jelly derived mesenchymal stem cell Phase 1

Detailed Description:
Ten patients from both genders diagnosed with Knee osteoarthrosis, will be enrolled according to strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. These patients will be injected with Wharton Jelly derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells. Then, they are followed by clinical assessment, laboratory investigations as well as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the injected knee.

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. Evaluation of the safety and tolerability of the intra articular injection [ Time Frame: 6 months ]
    patients will be monitored for any adverse events resulting from the intraarticular injection of WJMSC


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. Assessment of the efficacy of intra-articular injection of WJMSC [ Time Frame: 12 months ]
    The efficacy of the intra-articular injection of WJMSC will be assessed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI).
