Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of 3?dimensional scaffold of typeⅠcollagen based autolo?gous chondrocyte implantation (ACI). Methods Nine patients of knee articular cartilage defect treated with 3?dimensional scaf?fold of type Ⅰcollagen based ACI from January 2013 to March 2014 was analyzed retrospectively, including 6 males and 3 fe?males with an average age of 30 years old. 4 defects located in femoral condyle, 4 in trochlea and 1 in patellae with a mean size of 4.9 ± 2.1cm2 (range, 2.5-10). ACI comprises 2?stage procedure:chondrocytes were first harvested from non?load bearing area of femoral condyle, then chondrocytes expand in vitro for 8-14 days to get enough cells. On second stage, cartilage defects were cov?ered by the grafts and fixed with fibrin albumen glue. All patients received strict rehabilitation protocol. International Knee Docu?mentation Committee (IKDC) scores and Lysh?lm scores were compared pre?operatively and 3, 6, 12 months post?operatively. MR and magnetic resonance observation of cartilage repair tissue (MOCART) scores were analyzed within 3 days, 3, 6, 12 months post?operatively. Results All the patients were followed up. IKDC score was 52.7 ± 6.9 pre?operatively and respectively 71.1 ± 6.6, 83.3±2.9 and 92.0±3.6 3, 6, 12 months post?operatively with significant differences. The Lysh?m score was 55.8±8.7 pre?oper?atively and respectively 74.8±7.0, 84.8±4.8 and 93.1±5.7 3, 6, 12 months post?operatively with significant differences. 8 patients had MRI. The mean MOCART score 3 days, 3, 6, 12 months post?operatively was respectively 43.6±6.0, 47.8±5.8, 57.8±5.8, 64.3± 4.8 and 72.1±4.9 with significant differences. T2 value of transplanted area was 48.7±3.2 12 months post?operatively with no sig?nificant differences compared to normal area. Conclusion Three?dimensional scaffold of typeⅠcollagen based ACI could re?pair knee articular cartilage defect. It may be a good choice for treating articular cartilage defect which shows satisfactory results.
