Clinical Trial Summary

Chondro-Long study is prospective observational study for a long-term clinical evaluation (follow-up up to 25 years) in patients treated with autologous chondrocyte transplantation delivered on biomaterial for full-thickness chondral defects (Outerbridge grade III - IV) at the level of femoral condyles, trochlea, patella and tibial plateau. The aim of the study is to collect long-term clinical data from the case series of patients surgically treated from 1999 to 2006 with autologous chondrocyte transplantation delivered on biomaterial for full-thickness chondral defects (Outerbridge grade III - IV) or osteochondral defects at the level of femoral condyles, trochlea, patella, and tibial plateau. The objective of the study is to demonstrate the efficacy of this long-term cartilage regeneration technique (follow-up up to 25 years) in improving patient symptomatology and functional capacity


Clinical Trial Description

Patients will be recruited from all subjects surgically treated with autologous chondrocyte transplantation delivered on biomaterial for chondral/osteochondral lesions at the femoral condyles, trochlea, patella, and tibial plateau from 1999 to 2006 at the Rizzoli Orthopaedic Institute. The study has 3 phases: Identification of includable patients, Follow-up assessment byTelemedicine platform, and the collection of study-specific clinical data of enrolled patients. Clinical score data will be collected from the medical records and questionnaires conducted in the mid-term of patients enrolled in the study. These data will be used, together with data collected by telemedicine/long-term e-mail questionnaire, to evaluate the time course of outcomes after surgical treatment with autologous chondrocyte transplantation delivered on biomaterial ;
