Outcomes

Primary Outcomes

ICRS-Cartilage Repair Assessment Total Score

Time Frame: Week 48

Arthroscopic evaluation of articular cartilage repair : The score range from 12(normal) to 1(severely abnormal) where lower scores indicate more severity of injury

Secondary Outcomes

  • ICRS-Cartilage Repair Assessment Overall Grade(Week 48)
  • Improvement degree of Cartilage Repair by MRI(Week 0 and 48)
  • Degree of Functional improvement in FAOS(Foot & Ankle Outcome Score)(Week 0, 24 and 48)
  • Degree of Functional improvement in AOFAS(The American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Score)(Week 0, 24 and 48)
  • Degree of Functional improvement in Tegner activity score(Week 0, 24 and 48)
  • Degree of Quality of Life improvement in SF-36(Short Form Health Survey-36)(Week 0, 24 and 48)
  • Degree of pain improvement in 100 mm VAS(Visual Analogue Scale)(Week 0, 24 and 48)
