Article Description

The treatment of chondral injuries has significantly advanced over the past two decades. Rather than only providing symptomatic relief with activity modification, orthopaedic surgeons now have a variety of procedures available, depending on patient characterstics and lesion seventy. Judicious use of these modalities with appropriate indications is the key to successful outcomes with chondral injuries. Continued clinical and laboratory research is important for the future treatment of chondral injuries. A clear understanding of the biology behind chondral repair and chondrocyte morphology is imperative. The ultimate goal is to repair the chondral lesions with normal hyaline cartilage.
