Factors Influencing Long-term Outcomes After Matrix-Induced Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation: Long-term Results at 10 Years
The present study shows consistently good long-term clinical outcomes after MACI with a low revision rate and high patient satisfaction. BMI and number of previous knee surgeries may influence clinical outcomes and should be considered in patient selection and education. There is a correlation between graft structure, subchondral bone changes on magnetic resonance imaging, and long-term PROMs.
