Overview

Observational study shows improvement in pain and function in patients with knee cartilage lesions, indicating the efficacy of autologous implantation.

Key Points

  • Significant pain relief and functional improvement noted at 24 months post-surgery.
  • MCID was achieved in 9 out of 11 cases for pain on the Visual Analog Scale.
  • MRI results showed a mean MOCART score of 51.4 and a mean T2-Index of 0.72.
  • Three cases showed no evidence of transplanted cartilage in postoperative MRIs.
