Journal ArticleDOI
Autologous chondrocyte implantation compared with microfracture in the knee. A randomized trial.
Gunnar Knutsen,Lars Engebretsen,Tom C. Ludvigsen,Jon Olav Drogset,Torbjørn Grøntvedt,Eirik Solheim,Torbjørn Strand,Sally Roberts,Vidar Isaksen,Oddmund Johansen +9 more
TL;DR: There was no significant difference in macroscopic or histological results between the two treatment groups and no association between the histological findings and the clinical outcome at the two-year time-point.
Journal ArticleDOI
Degeneration of the intervertebral disc
Jill P. G. Urban,Sally Roberts +1 more
TL;DR: The intervertebral disc is a cartilaginous structure that resembles articular cartilage in its biochemistry, but morphologically it is clearly different, and shows degenerative and ageing changes earlier than does any other connective tissue in the body.
Journal ArticleDOI
A randomized trial comparing autologous chondrocyte implantation with microfracture. Findings at five years.
Gunnar Knutsen,Jon Olav Drogset,Lars Engebretsen,Torbjørn Grøntvedt,Vidar Isaksen,Tom C. Ludvigsen,Sally Roberts,Eirik Solheim,Torbjørn Strand,Oddmund Johansen +9 more
TL;DR: There was no significant difference in the clinical and radiographic results between the two treatment groups and no correlation between the histological findings and the clinical outcome, and both methods provided satisfactory results at five years.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histology and pathology of the human intervertebral disc
TL;DR: The intervertebral disc is a highly organized matrix laid down by relatively few cells in a specific manner that allows the discs to facilitate movement and flexibility within what would be an otherwise rigid spine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Histological assessment of cartilage repair: a report by the Histology Endpoint Committee of the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS).

TL;DR: Articular cartilage is a narrow layer of specialized connective tissue that permits smooth, frictionless movement of diarthrodial joints that is distinguished by the shape of the chondrocytes and the arrangement of type-II collagen fibers.
