Abstract:
Autologous chondrocyte transplantation has been used in the treatment of chondral and osteochondral lesions in a limited number of patients. The results are promising over a medium-length follow-up (2-6 years). Deeper involvement of the subchondral bone may need autologous bone grafting along with ACT. Future long-term, comparative studies are needed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of the treatment.
