“ulcerated cartilage is a troublesome thing,
once destroyed, it is not repaired.”
Of the structure and disease of articulating cartilages. 1743

Cartilage Form and Function
• Collectively, these highly specialized layers produce the superior
loading and minimal friction
• Chondrocytes constitute 2% of the total
l f d lt ti l tilvolume of adult articular cartilage
• Healthy chondrocytes are integral to cartilage survival
Response to Injury
Depends on the severity and depth:
• Low-energy “trivial” initiate a cascade toward gy
degeneration in the absence of visible changes
• Partial thickness
• Full-thickness subchondral bone
Cascade – “vicious cycle”
increased hydration
decreased proteoglycan concentrationinjure chondrocytes
decreased cartilage stiffnesslimit their repair capacity
increased force transmission to the subchondral bone
subchondral bone increases its stiffness
Higher impact loads to the cartilageg p g
Chondrocyte Response to InjuryChondrocyte Response to Injury
• proliferating & increasing matrix synthesis
l t f ti l tilavascular nature of articular cartilage
• can not restore the surface
• penetrate subchondral bone - higher repair capacity
Chondrocyte Response to InjuryChondrocyte Response to Injury
• bleeding & hematoma formation
• stem cell migration
• synthesis of type I collagen• synthesis of type I collagen

Clinically Point of ViewClinically Point of View
• partial thickness defects do not heal but rarely
i t d ith i ifi t li i l blassociated with significant clinical problems
• small full-thickness cartilage lesions can fill withsmall full thickness cartilage lesions can fill with
fibrocartilage & render a patient asymptomatic
• large full-thickness cartilage lesions result in pain &
disability
Goals of TreatmentGoals of Treatment
• restore the congtuity
• control the symptoms
• durability to stand load• durability to stand load
• prevent progression to OAprevent progression to OA

• fixation of periost with stitches• Arthrotomy
Alternative:
• three-dimensional carrier• MACI - matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation
