OATS mosaicplasty for sports knee cartilage repair
In a ten-year trial of athletes, osteochondral autograft transfer showed 14% treatment failure versus 38% for microfracture, a divergence emerging between years five and ten because fibrocartilage stimulated by microfracture degrades under repetitive athletic loading whilst transplanted hyaline cartilage retains structural integrity.In a ten-year trial of athletes, osteochondral autograft transfer showed 14% treatment failure versus 38% for microfracture, a divergence emerging between years five and ten because fibrocartilage stimulated by microfracture degrades under repetitive athletic loading whilst transplanted hyaline cartilage retains structural integrity.

ACI versus MACI for knee cartilage repair
Cartilage defect size on MRI drives the choice between single-stage repair (AMIC, OATS) and two-stage cell therapy (MACI): below 2–4 cm², simpler alternatives often provide comparable results; at 3 cm² or larger, MACI demonstrates superiority.Cartilage defect size on MRI drives the choice between single-stage repair (AMIC, OATS) and two-stage cell therapy (MACI): below 2–4 cm², simpler alternatives often provide comparable results; at 3 cm² or larger, MACI demonstrates superiority.
