Who qualifies for MACI knee surgery
MACI grows hyaline-like cartilage from the patient's own cells and maintains superior pain and function scores at five years, unlike microfracture, whose fibrocartilage typically deteriorates within two to three years.MACI grows hyaline-like cartilage from the patient's own cells and maintains superior pain and function scores at five years, unlike microfracture, whose fibrocartilage typically deteriorates within two to three years.

AMIC vs microfracture for knee cartilage repair
Both AMIC and microfracture improve pain and function in the first two years; beyond that point, microfracture outcomes progressively deteriorate whilst AMIC maintains stable gains through a decade of follow-up.Both AMIC and microfracture improve pain and function in the first two years; beyond that point, microfracture outcomes progressively deteriorate whilst AMIC maintains stable gains through a decade of follow-up.

Allograft vs autograft for large knee cartilage defects
Autograft for knee cartilage defects larger than roughly 2–4 cm² risks replacing one area of cartilage loss with another at the harvest site. Osteochondral allografts from cadaveric donors eliminate this trade-off and achieve 5-year survival of 79–87.8%.Autograft for knee cartilage defects larger than roughly 2–4 cm² risks replacing one area of cartilage loss with another at the harvest site.
