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 ...

Single-Stage Arthroscopic Cartilage Repair With Gel Scaffold and BMAC
Background: Injectable scaffold augmentation has been gaining traction as a promising modality for single-stage cartilage repair. It involves the use of a biological scaffold that augments microfracture techniques by aiding in clot stabilization and ...

Special Issue on Microfracture [PDF]
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]
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.

Particulated Costal Allocartilage With Microfracture Versus Microfracture Alone for Knee Cartilage Defects: A Multicenter, Prospective, Randomized, Participant- and Rater-Blinded Study [PDF]
Background: Microfracture is the first-line treatment for cartilage defects; however, the suboptimal quality of the repaired cartilage remains an issue.

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 ...
