Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Deficiency of Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Interventions
Procedure: ACL reconstruction only
Biological: hyaluronic acid
Biological: Cartistem(TM)
Registration Number
NCT02755376
Lead Sponsor
Samsung Medical Center
Brief Summary

Purpose:Development of novel strategy for treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury using stem cell.

Detailed Description

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.
