Bartolo's amazing comeback appears to be modern medicine enabled.
Should this be viewed in a similar light as PED's?
I don't know, but am now concerned that aging superstars might go the same route and produce records that are tainted.
In any event, a great article and food for thought.

Medical procedures will always get more advanced.  

That being said, laboratory cocktails designed to beat the system are different in my opinion.  As is using substances that are banned.

Now to have HGH in a surgery?????????  IT does start to create a gray area in some regard.

Imagine what the old timers thought of the advantage of microscopic surgery or Tommy John surgery not to mention  lysac (spelling)surgery..........
