Similar short-term results between scaffold implanted mesenchymal stem cells vs acellular scaffolds with concentrated bone marrow aspirate augmentation for the repair of chondral defects of the knee: evidence from a meta-analysis
ABSTRACT: Background: Scaffold-implanted mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) are gaining popularity for the treatment of cartilage defects. However, there is little evidence comparing its efficacy against the currently well-established technique of utilizing acellular scaffolds (ACs) with concentrated bo...
