Abstract | Articular cartilage injuries are found in up to 60% of patients who undergo an arthroscopic knee procedure, and those that totally affect articular cartilage (grade IV) have limited regenerative capacity and extended time for recovery. 3-D scaffolds represent a novel solution to address this type of injury. Our purpose was to analyze the MRI findings and functional status of patients that underwent repair of chondral defects either by microfractures or Hyaluronan (HA) 3-D scaffolding. We conducted a retrospective study of patients with chondral defects. The outcomes analyzed in this study included anatomical changes evaluated by the Henderson score (based on MRI findings) at baseline, 6, and 12 months after surgery, and improvement in functionality evaluated by the Modified Cincinnati Knee Rating System (MCKRS) at baseline and 6 months after surgery. Clinical and demographic characteristics were similar for both groups. There was a statistically significant improvement in Henderson score for the 3-D scaffold-treated group at 6 months versus the microfracture group ( |
