Abstract：
:An independent assessment was performed of the results of woven carbon implants of mesh or rods into articular cartilage defects performed by two surgeons in the knees of 96 patients. Eight had symptomatic osteochondritis, 31 had chondromalacia patellae and 57 had early osteoarthritis. They were reviewed up to 5 yr after operation. Seventy-six patients (79%) experienced an improvement in analogue pain score and similar improvements occurred in a range of functional activities (P = 0.002). No evidence of inflammatory change or deterioration in joint damage was found. It is concluded that this relatively minor procedure is valuable in younger patients with troublesome symptoms due to early articular cartilage damage and does not prejudice further operative treatment.

BIOMATERIALS文献大全abstract：:There is great demand for constructing well-organized three-dimensional (3D) tissues in vitro. Here, we developed a 3D stacked culture method using biodegradable poly(d,l-lactide-co- glycolide) (PLGA) membranes with defined topography. Pore size and porosity of the membranes can be controlled by changing the moisture ...
