Has anyone had new cartilage regenerated and implanted into their bone? Would you consider this successful treatment? I am only 39 and hoping for delaying TKR. THANK YOU

i only know of one person who had it done not successful , but that was a few years ago it probably has improved . I guess too it would depend on where you live may not be available easily

I live in UK , but I am considering it privately. I can’t imagine to live like this and I am realizing this is very beginning of my thorny journey . I only hope to save enough for it in time.
But I really hoped to hear from someone who had it done? or someone who knows someone who did have it done.
