Sumario:A prospective analysis of the effect of autologous adipose derived mesenchymal stem cell (AD-MSCs) therapy in the treatment of a juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) of the patella. After failed conventional management of JOCD, a 13-year-old patient undergoes intra-articular MSC therapy. Repeated magnetic resonance imaging analyses showed regeneration of cartilage. In this report, the use of AD-MSCs, after unsuccessful conventional JOCD management, resulted in structural, functional and pain improvement. These results highlight the possibility to avoid surgery treatment in JOCD patella treatment.
