Restoration of a large osteochondral defect of the knee using a composite of umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells and hyaluronic acid hydrogel: a case report with a 5-year follow-up

Abstract: BackgroundThe treatment of articular cartilage defects is a therapeutic challenge for orthopaedic surgeons. Furthermore, large osteochondral defects needs restoration of the underlying bone for sufficient biomechanical characteristics as well as the overlying cartilage.Case presentationA symptomatic large osteochondral defect in the knee joint was restored using a composite of umbilical cord blood-derived mesenchymal stem cells (UCB-MSCs) 0.5 x 107/ml and 4% hyaluronic acid (HA) hydrogel. Significant improveme… Show more

“…Furthermore, UCMSCs have been directly compared to TMJ condyle chondrocytes in vitro and significantly outperform the differentiated chondrocytes in GAG and collagen sythesis and proliferation when seeded on a PGA scaffold [152] . Bone regeneration at the osteochondral interface are primary targets for UCMSCs due to their regenerative capacity; however, these cells have yet to be used in scaffolds implanted into a TMJ condyle [153,154] .…”

“…In the present study, we have evaluated the efficacy of bone marrow- Articular cartilage (AC) is an extremely specialized, avascular, and aneural connective tissue with minimum self-healing ability that may lead to progressive damage and joint deterioration even with minor lesions or injuries (Liu et al, 2017;Park et al, 2017;Perera et al, 2012 (Zheng et al, 2017), bone, cartilage, tendon regeneration (Im, 2017), and a large number of preclinical and a few clinical studies (Bao et al, 2018;Henning et al, 2012;Ko, Kim, Park, & Im, 2014). (Bao et al, 2018;Guldris et al, 2017;Henning et al, 2012;Li et al, 2013;Wei et al, 2017).…”
