Purpose:Development of novel strategy for treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury using stem cell.
1. Purpose: Development of novel strategy for treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury using stem cell. 2. Subject: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury 30 patients * ACL reconstruction: 10 * ACL reconstruction + Human cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells and hyaluronic acid (Cartistem (TM)): 10 * ACL reconstruction + hyaluronic acid: 10 3. Hypothesis: Human Cord blood derived mesenchymal stem cells can enhance healing between bone tunnel and graft in ACL reconstruction.
