ChondroFiller for focal knee defects, not osteoarthritis
ChondroFiller is an injectable collagen scaffold that recruits a patient's own progenitor cells for cartilage repair. It works only on focal defects; chronic inflammation and cell depletion in osteoarthritis eliminate the biological conditions it requires.ChondroFiller is an injectable collagen scaffold that recruits a patient's own progenitor cells for cartilage repair.

Cartilage repair or knee replacement
The first split between cartilage repair and knee replacement is whether damage is a focal defect in an otherwise intact knee or diffuse wear across the joint. Joint-preserving treatment fits localised lesions, often in younger or active patients, with alignment, meniscus status and stability shaping the plan. Smaller focal defects…The first split between cartilage repair and knee replacement is whether damage is a focal defect in an otherwise intact knee or diffuse wear across the joint. Joint-preserving treatment fits localised lesions, often in younger or active patients, with alignment, meniscus status and stability shaping the plan. Smaller focal defects under about 2 to 4 cm² may still be treated with microfracture, but the SUMMIT trial showed MACI gave better 2-year pain and function for larger defects. OCA addresse...
