Traumatic knee cartilage injuries require precise documentation. Newer methods aim to regenerate hyaline cartilage, offering better long-term function than fibrocartilage repair.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic surgery
  • Regenerative medicine
  • Sports medicine

Background:

  • Traumatic knee cartilage defects result from direct impact or combined injuries.
  • Current treatments for purely cartilaginous lesions yield insufficient fibrocartilage repair.
  • Fibrocartilage's mechanical insufficiency limits patient's return to sports and work.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review current and emerging surgical techniques for traumatic knee cartilage defects.
  • To compare the efficacy of fibrocartilage repair versus hyaline cartilage regeneration.
  • To highlight advanced methods for restoring knee joint function.

Main Methods:

  • Documentation of defects by location, surface area, and depth.
  • Surgical stimulation of repair via drillholes or impaction fractures.

  • Osteochondral transplantation using autologous plugs.
  • Chondrocyte suspension for hyaline-like cartilage regeneration.

    • Main Results:

    • Refixation is possible only for fragments extending into subchondral bone.
    • Spontaneous healing results in mechanically insufficient fibrocartilage.
    • Osteochondral plugs are suitable for limited defect sizes.
    • Chondrocyte suspension offers hyaline-like repair for larger defects, requiring two procedures.

    Conclusions:

    • Regenerative methods producing hyaline or hyaline-like cartilage are increasingly favored.
    • Osteochondral transplantation is viable for smaller defects.
    • Chondrocyte suspension shows promise as a future gold standard for defects exceeding 4 cm2.
