Summary

Autotransplantation of human chondrocytes is an alternative therapeutic treatment for focal lesions of cartilage. During the process of isolation and culture of chondrocytes some problems that render the implantation of the cells unsuitable can occur. The objective of this study was to analyse the effect of cryopreservation on cellular viability, proliferation, and collagen expression of human chondrocytes.
