New frontiers for cartilage repair, joint preservation and prevention
Journal of Cartilage & Joint Preservation, 2022 Damaged cartilage is seen with increasing frequency after joint trauma, alone or in combination with other joint injuries. A poor healing of injured cartilage leads to great disability and pain and could by time develop into osteoarthritis (OA).

Surgical Fixation of Chondral-Only Fragments of the Knee: A Case Series With a Mean 4-Year Follow-up
Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2021 Background: Chondral-only fragments of the knee have traditionally been treated with excision, with or without cartilage restoration procedures. This is because of the historical assumption that cartilage has limited ability to heal to cancellous or ...

Repairing a critical cranial defect using WISP1-pretreated chondrocyte scaffolds
Journal of Tissue Engineering, 2023 In cranial flat bone fractures, spontaneous bone repair will occur only when the fracture ends are in close contact. However, in cases wherein bone discontinuity is extensive, surgical interventions are often required.
