Abstract
Stem cell therapy is one of the most promising treatments to restore and repair damaged articulate cartilage. Koh et al. present in this issue their study on the treatment of articulate cartilage defects with adipose derived stem cell. We believe that it is a matter of time to when stem cells will become cost effective and commercially available for the treatment of articulate cartilage injuries.
