Abstract/OtherAbstract:
We report on the 8-year follow-up outcome after autologous chondrocyte transplantation in a case of massive cartilage lesion of the distal tibia in a young patient after intraarticular fracture. To our knowledge, this is the first case report in which autologous chondrocyte transplantation was performed in the distal tibial chondral lesion. Long-term clinical success was achieved by this method of treatment in a patient too young to be treated with arthrodesis.
