Abstract
This is the first trial comparing the CaReS® technique and microfracture for treating patellofemoral articular cartilage lesions, and results show that CaReS® yields comparable results to microfracture. The small number of patients is a limiting factor of the study, leading to results without statistical significance. A multicentric prospective randomized study comparing the two procedures is desirable.
