Chondromatrix
Implant of autologous chondrocytes in a collagen matrix for advanced regeneration of knee articular cartilage.
Chondromatrix is an advanced tissue engineering solution based on the implantation of autologous chondrocytes cultured in vitro and seeded onto a collagen matrix, allowing regeneration of articular cartilage with structural properties similar to hyaline cartilage.
Composition
5 million autologous chondrocytes per cm2 in a collagen matrix.
Pharmaceutical form
Collagen membrane with autologous chondrocytes for surgical implantation.
Presentation
Membranes of different sizes, adjustable to the defect, ready for arthroscopic or open implantation.
Mechanism of action & Clinical data
Chondrocytes adhere to the cartilage lesion promoting tissue regeneration, improving mechanical strength, elasticity, and shock absorption of the treated joint.
