Abstract
Stem cells, bone marrow, or bone marrow enriched with stem cells, is introduced into a host's tissue deficient in blood flow or deficient in a cell type, preferably by creating a trap or pocket within the tissue for confining introduced material. The trap or pocket can be created using mechanical and light energy, or like expedients.
