Clinical and Comparative Evaluation of the Treatment Results of Arthroscopic Reconstruction of Cartilage Defects in the Knee Joint With the Use of Autogenous Cartilage Graft With PRP GF (Platelet-rich Plasma With Growth Factors).

Clinical and comparative evaluation of the treatment results of arthroscopic reconstruction of cartilage defects in the knee joint with the use of autogenous cartilage graft with PRP GF (platelet-rich plasma with growth factors)

The main goal of the research project is to evaluate the results of the treatment of arthroscopic reconstruction of cartilage defects in the knee joint with the use of an autogenous PRP GF cartilage graft. The specific objectives are: to compare the results of treatment of analogous areas of the cartilage defects of the knee joint obtained in the study groups using two methods: microfracture and autogenous PRP GF cartilage graft (Auto Cart-Arthrex method). The results on the operated limb will be compared in both groups both between the groups and with the results of clinical and biomechanical tests on non-operated limbs.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Age under 18 or over 65;
