Abstract

See full text

A method of promoting regeneration of surface cartilage of a joint includes the steps of forming punctures in a subchondral plate of an area of the joint to be treated, covering the puncture and the area to be treated with a chondrocyte-free patch made of a sheet of collagen membrane material without adding chondrocytes to the area to be treated, fixing the patch over the area to be treated, and allowing the area to be treated to regenerate cartilage without adding chondrocytes to the area to be treated.
