Ex vivo osteochondral test system with control over cartilage defect depth – A pilot study to investigate the effect of oxygen tension and chondrocyte based treatments in chondral and full thickness defects in an organ model
Objective: Cartilage defect treatment strategies are dependent on the lesion size and severity. Osteochondral explant models are a platform to test cartilage repair strategies ex vivo. Current models lack in mimicking the variety of clinically relevant defect scenarios. In this controlled laboratory...
