| Research Abstract |
In recent years, usefulness of the technique using artificial materials and animal-derived materials has been reported in the treatment of meniscus which is one of the tissue forming the synovial joint. However, the problems to be overcome, such as infection control and immune response, are still present. The most effective way to solve these problems is to use autologous materials only. Fibrin clot is a tissue with a network structure and is easily created from venous blood. Fibrin clot is highly safe because it is autologous. In this study, we examined the regenerative therapy of meniscus using the fibrin clot.
