Abstract:
[Objective] To investigate the establishment of the Allograft Menisci Bank so as to provide suitable allograft meniscus for clinical study of allograft meniscus transplantation.[Method]The allograft menisci from the plentiful donors of the tissue bank were achieved and preserved with the deep-frozen technique.Clinical use of allograft menisci should be based on practical requirement of patients and the data recorded in the Menisci Bank.[Result]From 2005 to the end of 2006,an Allograft Menisci Bank was established which consisted with about 300 different-sized menisci and 14 allograft menisci were provided for clinical study.[Conclusion]Establishment of the Allograft Menisci Bank can provide a base for clinical meniscus transplantation.The short-term effects of the allograft menisci transplantation are satisfactory,but the long-term outcomes need more cases and further observation.
