The combination of microfracture with induction of Wnt / β- Catenin pathway, leads to enhanced cartilage regeneration

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2019
Introduction Microfracture does not lead to complete healing of full-thickness cartilage defects. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of modifying Wnt/β-catenin signaling following microfracture, on the restoration of a full-thickness ...

Special Issue on Microfracture [PDF]

open access: yesCARTILAGE, 2010
Articular cartilage injuries are common and have been found in approximately 60% of knees1,2 and 5% of shoulders3 undergoing arthroscopy. While many of these are incidental findings, the remainder are often symptomatic and debilitating and present a unique challenge secondary to the poor regenerative capacity of the native tissue.

Histomorphochemical comparison of microfracture as a first-line and a salvage procedure: is microfracture still a viable option for knee cartilage repair in a salvage situation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Microfracture is considered as the first-line procedure for knee cartilage repair, but the results of microfracture seem less predictable and rather controversial in a salvage situation.

Microfractures: A review

open access: yesJournal of Structural Geology, 2014
Microfractures are small, high-aspect-ratio cracks in rock that result from application of differential stresses. Although the term has been used to refer to larger features in the petroleum engineering and geophysics literature, in geologic parlance the term refers to fractures visible only under magnification, having lengths of millimeters or less ...
