Articular Cartilage Defects
Conditions
Brief summary
66 articular cartilage injury diseases patients were divided into two groups as 1:1. The test group will be treated with arthroscopic micro-fracture with autologous adipose gel, and the control group will be treated with arthroscopic micro-fracture. Postoperative MRI evaluation, Lysholm score, IKDC score, Tegner score, and VAS score will be used as the treatment validity evaluation index, at the same time testing blood routine, blood biochemistry, urine routine, CRP, electrocardiogram and other laboratory tests and recording the occurrence of adverse events.
Detailed description
In this study, 66 patients who were clinically diagnosed as articular cartilage injury diseases were divided into test group and control group according to the ratio of 1:1. The test group will be treated with arthroscopic micro-fracture with autologous adipose gel, and the control group will be treated with arthroscopic micro-fracture. Postoperative MRI evaluation, Lysholm score, IKDC score, Tegner score, and VAS score will be used as the treatment validity evaluation index, at the same time testing blood routine, blood biochemistry, urine routine, CRP, electrocardiogram and other laboratory tests and recording the occurrence of adverse events.
Interventions
Fully cut the adipose tissue taken out under the arthroscopy, transfer the cut adipose tissue to a syringe connected with a double pass, push back and forth through the syringe to physically emulsify the adipose, and centrifuge to obtain the autologous adipose gel, and inject it into the lesion
Surgeons routinely perform international standard micro-fracture surgery to repair cartilage damage
