Abstract:	Objective Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is a well-established therapeutic option for the treatment of cartilage defects of the knee joint. Since information concerning the cellular aspects of ACI is still limited, the aim of the present study was to investigate relevant differences between chondrocyte quality after in vitro cultivation and possible correlations with patient-specific factors.
