Bilayer Biomaterials Cell Scaffold for Articular Cartilage Regeneration

The full-thickness articular cartilage defect is the abnormal grade of articular cartilage injury. The injury in adolescents and young adult athletes cause long-term problems. To resume sport activity, the gold standard treatment, mosaicplasty or osteochondral autograft transfer, is recommended....

description The full-thickness articular cartilage defect is the abnormal grade of articular cartilage injury. The injury in adolescents and young adult athletes cause long-term problems.
