Injuries to the articular cartilage in different joints, including the knee, are painful and limit mobility. Therefore, researchers at the University of Basel and University Hospital Basel are ...

Engineered cartilage from nasal septum cells is treating complex knee damage, thanks to Swiss researchers who developed the ...

Your knee contains articular cartilage, which lines your bones and allows you to ... also called DeNovo®, we will implant donor cartilage cells into the injured area. Once the cells are implanted into ...

Figure 1: Application of adult MSCs to tissue engineering, illustrated by several approaches to articular cartilage repair. Cell-based tissue engineering is one of the most promising approaches in ...

To accomplish this, the researchers first extract a small sample of cartilage from the patient’s nose and those cells are subsequently multiplied in a lab and then placed on a soft fiber scaffold ...

The ex vivo cartilage defect model was prepared from cartilage harvested from the KRS patients’ excised knee joints. Only cartilage from the mid-region of the lateral-femoral compartment ...

compared with moderate evidence of a cartilage defect prevalence of 12% (95% CI 7% to 21%) in asymptomatic individuals. Conclusion The prevalence of intra-articular hip pathologies is highly variable ...
