Cartilage repair surgery is not only fascinating but also surgically challenging. There are books dealing with basic science and some surgical aspect. This book fills a gap in surgical techniques for cartilage repair. All of the surgical chapters are logically organised, covering patient selection, patient setup/positioning, surgical approach, potential complications and troubleshooting. An attempt is made to compare with various surgical techniques. This book also covers anaesthesia, postoperative follow-up, pain management and rehabilitation. Both the editors and the authors are renowned experts in the field. This book will be invaluable for orthopaedic and sports medicine surgeons (consultants and training doctors) and is also of potential interest to physiotherapists, medical students, general practitioners, physical medicine and rehabilitation specialists and rheumatology specialists." -- Contents: Part I Introduction 1 History of the Treatment of Cartilage Injuries 2 Articular Cartilage: Histology and Physiology 3 Treatment Algorithm for Articular Cartilage Repair of the Knee: Towards Patient Profiling Using Evidence-Based Tools; Part II Marrow Stimulation Techniques 4 Stimulation Techniques: Microfracturing, Drilling; Part III Acellular Matrix Based Cartilage Regeneration Techniques 5 Matrix-Enhanced Microfracture: Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondroneogenesis (AMIC tm) 6 Autologous Collagen-Induced Chondrogenesis (ACIC tm) 7 TruFit 8 MaioRegen: Our Experience 9 BST-CarGel: An Enhanced Bone Marrow Stimulation Treatment; Part IV Concentrated Cell Based Chondrogenesis 10 Mesenchymal Stem Cell Induced Chondrogenesis (MCIC tm); Part V Repair Techniques 11 Surgical Techniques in Cartilage Repair Surgery: Osteochondral Autograft Transfer (OATS, Mosaicplasty) 12 Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation for: 'Surgical Techniques in Cartilage Repair Surgery' 13 ESSKA Book Series - Techniques in Cartilage Repair Surgery Minced Cartilage: DeNovo and CAIS; Part VI Cultured Cells for Cartilage Tissue Engineering 14 Classical ACI for Chondral and Osteochondral Defects 15 Gel ACI (GACI): Articular Cartilage Repair Technique 16 A Scaffold-Free Mesenchymal Stem Cells-Based Implant to Repair a Three-Dimensional Chondral Lesion 17 Injectable Autologous Bone-Marrow-Derived Mesenchymal Stem Cells for Cartilage Repair: The Singapore Technique 18 Stem Cell Research in Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery 19 Knee Cartilage Repair with Hyalograft (Hyaff-11 Scaffold with Seeded Autologous Chondrocytes) 20 Matrix-Induced Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation 21 CaReS, Cartilage Regeneration System: Autologous Chondrocyte Transplantation in a Collagen Gel; Part VII Cartilage Repair of Other Joints 22 Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis (AMIC)-Aided Repair of Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus 23 Cartilage Repair in the Hip; Part VIII Alignment, Stability and Meniscal Replacement 24 High Tibial Osteotomy in Cartilage Repair 25 Distal Femoral Varus Osteotomy for Correction of Valgus Deformity 26 Meniscal Allograft Transplantation; Part IX Rehabilitation, Pain Management and Follow-Up 27 Rehabilitation After Cartilage Repair Surgery: Part II Practical Issues 28 Orthobiologics 29 Anaesthesia in Cartilage Repair Surgery 30 Preoperative and Postoperative Radiological Assessment; Part X The Future 31 The Future of Cartilage Repair Surgery; Index.…
