Abstract:
Cryopreservation is essential for the long-term storage and banking of cartilage grafts. This paper reviews the developments on the cryopreservation of cartilage and transplantation of cryopreserved cartilage grafts during the past 10 years. It is stated that the current technologies for cryopreservation of cartilage grafts are not mature. Further systematic studies are necessary.
