AbstractPurposePrevious studies have reported on the outcomes of autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) versus matrix‐induced ACI (MACI) and microfracture. Specific clinical outcomes of ACI, MACI, osteochondral autograft transplantation (OAT) and osteochondral allograft (OCA) have not been well studied. The purpose of this systematic review and meta‐analysis was to analyze t...

Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation “Segmental-Sandwich” Technique for Deep Osteochondral Defects in the Knee: Clinical Outcomes and Correlation With Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2019 | Takahiro Ogura, Gergo Merkely, Tim Bryant, Carl S. Winalski

Background: Symptomatic osteochondral defects are difficult to manage, especially in patients with deep (>8-10 mm) empty defects. The restoration of articular congruence is crucial to avoid the progression to osteoarthritis (OA). Purpose: To describe the autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) “segmental-sandwich” technique for restoration of the osteochondral unit and to eva...

Comparison of Clinical Outcomes in the Treatment of Patellofemoral Chondral Defects: Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation versus Fresh Osteochondral Allografts

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2019 | Nirav K. Patel, Vahe Varzhapetyan, Zaira Chaudhry, Hytham S. Salem

Objectives: The complex environment and the extreme stresses of the patellofemoral joint make chondral defects a challenge to treat. Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) and osteochondral allograft transplantation (OCA) have been reported as case series in the patellofemoral joint with mixed results. This study compared the clinical outcomes for ACI and OCA treatments for...

Cell-seeded Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation (cs-ACI) - A Simplified Implantation Technique with Maintained Clinical Outcomes

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2016 | Luiz Felipe Morlin Ambra, Amy Phan, Marissa Mastrocola, Andreas H. Gomoll

Objectives: The objective of this study was to investigate whether outcomes and failure rate of a simplified ACI technique (cs-ACI) were comparable to those of the more complicated traditional technique of a chondrocyte suspension injected under membrane cover (cACI). Methods: Patients were treated with cACI prior to February 2010. After this date the senior author switched to...
