Chondro-Gide® Bilayer Collagen Matrix
Chondro-Gide® is the leading natural collagen matrix in cartilage regeneration. This standardised, easy to handle matrix can be used to treat cartilage defects with various surgical methods:
AMIC® (Autologous Matrix Induced Chondrogenesis)
AMIC® is a single step, cost efficient and effective technique for treating traumatic cartilage defects. Chondro-Gide® offers a protective environment for cell differentiation and the formation of new cartilage.
ACI (Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation)
Chondro-Gide® provides an ideal 3D supportive matrix for adherence of autologous cultured chondrocytes andencourages their proliferation.
Chondro-Gide® consists of collagen type I and III. The unique bilayer structure of the matrix is manufactured in a patented process .
