🚨 Exciting Clinical Milestone

🦵 OrthoPure®XT from Tissue Regenix Group is a safe, off-the-shelf product in ACL Reconstruction!

The first-in-human 5-year clinical study of a novel porcine xenograft for ACL reconstruction has just been published in the Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics.

✅ Key Highlights:
- 40 patients treated with a decellularized porcine tendon graft
- No immunogenic response observed
- Clinical outcomes comparable to autografts and allografts
- Graft ruptures limited to young male patients
- MRI and radiographic results support safety and performance

This study marks a significant step forward in expanding graft options for ACL surgery, offering a biomechanically sound and immunologically safe alternative.

Cartilage Image of the month – September 2025 🍁🍂

🖼️ Selected as the Cartilage Image of the Month September, this case was submitted by Dr. Andrejs Finogejevs (LV).
A 42-year-old active female office worker presented with pain, stiffness, and limited knee motion for two months (VAS 4–6). Conservative treatment included NSAIDs and a knee brace. Imaging revealed a 1.5 x 2.5 cm cartilage defect on the medial femoral condyle.

Dr. Finogejevs performed a mini-open chondroplasty and microfracture. At 6 months post-op, the patient reported no pain, had returned to sports activities, and was fully weight-bearing without crutches.

At 6 months post-op, the patient was pain-free, active in sports, and walking without crutches. The one-year follow-up image shows a well-filled defect, with cartilage regeneration reaching the level of the surrounding tissue—indicating a successful outcome and excellent tissue remodeling.

Selected as the Cartilage Image of the Month May, this case was submitted by Dominik Wilkens (🇩🇪).

👤 𝗣𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲: 38-year-old female patient presented with an extensive retropatellar cartilage defect measuring approximately 6 cm².

👉 𝗦𝘂𝗿𝗴𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵: The defect was treated using a 30x40 mm collagen membrane, tailored to fit the lesion. To optimize patellar tracking and reduce lateral pressure, the procedure was complemented by a Z-plasty lengthening of the lateral retinaculum.

🔎 𝗖𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗹 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁: This case highlights the importance of addressing both the cartilage defect and biomechanical contributors to patellofemoral joint stress. The combination of membrane-based cartilage repair and soft tissue realignment offers a comprehensive approach to managing complex patellar cartilage lesions.
