Articular cartilage restoration using principles of tissue engineering

Articular cartilage has little capacity to repair itself. Any injury or degeneration of articular cartilage, be it a minor lesion may cause progressive damage and serious morbidity affecting people in every age group. In many cases, traditional surgical treatment has tasted its own success. However,...

Any injury or degeneration of articular cartilage, be it a minor lesion may cause progressive damage and serious morbidity affecting people in every age group. In many cases, traditional surgical treatment has tasted its own success.
