A biodegradable, hyaluronian-based biocompatible scaff old is used for autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) for the treatment of articular cartilage lesions. This procedure consists of two steps: the fi rst one is an arthroscopic biopsy of healthy cartilage for chondrocyte cell culture. After 6 weeks, the bioengineered tissue obtained can be implanted trough a mini-open procedure or arthroscopic technique.
