About
This is a non-randomized multicentre study for the evaluation of the clinical performance and safaty of the augmentation-to-surgery and conservative treatments for the degenerative meniscopathies, with injection of polynucleotide gel.
Full description
Meniscal tear plays a significant role among the multitude of ethiologies of knee pain. In the setting of chronic meniscus degeneration, healing potential remains low due to a vascular penetration of less than one-third of the adult meniscus. Currently, both conservative and surgical modalities can be utilized in the treatment of the painful degenerative menisci, and no gold standard treatment has been identified. Polynucleotide gel Condrotide® is a polynucleotide solution, used in case of degenerative painful join pathologies, favouring the physiological mechanism of joint repair because of the capacity to normalize the viscosity of synovial fluid and supposed to improve the joint trophism. The present study aims at evaluating the capacity of the polynucleotide gel injection to stimulate healing and slow down progression of meniscal degeneration, through augmentation-to-surgery and conservative treatments for the degenerative meniscopathies.
