Autologous chondrocyte implantation to repair knee cartilage injury : ultrastructural evaluation at 2 years and long term follow up including muscle strength measurements
Løken, Sverre; Ludvigsen, Tom C.; Høysveen, Turid; Holm, Inger; Engebretsen, Lars; Reinholt, Finn P. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2009-07-02)Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) usually results in improvement in clinical scores. However, long-term isokinetic muscle strength measurements have not been reported. Biopsies from the repair tissue have shown ... -
Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells in a hyaluronan scaffold for treatment of an osteochondral defect in a rabbit model
Løken, Sverre; Jakobsen, Rune B.; Årøen, Asbjørn; Heir, Stig; Shahdadfar, A.; Brinchmann, J. E.; Engebretsen, Lars; Reinholt, Finn P. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2008-07-01)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the efficiency of using mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) in a hyaluronan scaffold for repair of an osteochondral defect in rabbit knee. Bone marrow was harvested from the posterior ... -
Intraarticular location predicts cartilage filling and subchondral bone changes in a chondral defect
Heir, Stig; Årøen, Asbjørn; Løken, Sverre; Sulheim, Steinar; Engebretsen, Lars; Reinholt, Finn P. (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2010-10)Background and purpose: The natural history of, and predictive factors for outcome of cartilage restoration in chondral defects are poorly understood. We investigated the natural history of cartilage filling subchondral ... -
Relationship between CTX-II and patient characteristics, patient-reported outcome, muscle strength, and rehabilitation in patients with a focal cartilage lesion of the knee: A prospective exploratory cohort study of 48 patients
Røtterud, Jan Harald; Reinholt, Finn P.; Beckstrøm, Karen Johanne; Risberg, May Arna; Årøen, Asbjørn (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2014-03-24)Background: C-telopeptide fragments of type II collagen (CTX-II) are created during articular cartilage breakdown and CTX-II is considered useful as a biomarker of osteoarthritis. The primary objective of the present study ...
