Cartilage regeneration replaces articular cartilage, which acts as a cushion between bone terminals. When the cartilage between the bones is injured or worn down, it causes pain near the sensitive nerve ends. Because cartilage lacks a blood supply, its ability to repair itself is limited. Cartilage repair is the restoration of the cartilage (articular) surface of a joint that has been impacted by an osteochondral/chondral defect. After an accident, the injured joint usually swells, and the swelling can last for weeks or even months. Articular cartilage is a defect caused by osteoarthritis that is less important for repairs due to its vascular structure and limited mitotic capabilities. Symptoms of cartilage loss include movement restrictions, muscle stiffness, soreness, inflammation, and physical disability. The rising prevalence of diabetes and obesity worldwide is expected to drive the cartilage repair market over the forecast period. Diabetes accelerates cartilage degeneration.

US Cartilage Repair Market is poised to grow at a sustainable CAGR for the next forecast year.
