Abstract:

BACKGROUND: Knee cartilage injury is difficult to heal, which is an urgent clinical problem to solve.

OBJECTIVE: To summarize the advantages of synovial mesenchymal stem cells in the treatment of knee cartilage injury.

METHODS: A computer-based search of PubMed was performed for articles related to synovial mesenchymal stem cells for knee cartilage injury using the keywords of “knee joint, cartilage, synovial membrane, tissues, injuries and repair”. A total of 48 articles were retrieved initially, and 35 articles were included in result analysis.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Synovial mesenchymal stem cells for treatment of knee cartilage injury can achieve more ideal outcomes. Mesenchymal stem cells inherent in the damaged tissue are the optimal seed cells for tissue repair.
