Article Title: Enthesis repair - State of play.
Article Snippet: The fibrocartilaginous enthesis is a highly specialised tissue interface that ensures a smooth mechanical transfer between tendon or ligament and bone through a fibrocartilage area.. This tissue is prone to injury and often does not heal, even after surgical intervention.. Enthesis augmentation approaches are challenging due to the complexity of the tissue that is characterised by the coexistence of a range of cellular and extracellular components, architectural features and mechanical properties within only hundreds of micrometres.

Article Title: Emerging therapies for cartilage regeneration in currently excluded ‘red knee’ populations
Article Snippet: .. However, issues with graft survivability, disease transmission, and integration have motivated tissue engineers to develop newer composite scaffolds that guide localized regeneration of the cartilage and bone layers of an osteochondral unit., Clinically, the TruFit Plug (Smith & Nephew, San Antonio TX) is one of the only synthetic osteochondral scaffolds that has been evaluated in patients, , with a subchondral phase containing calcium sulfate for bone regeneration and an articulating phase that relied on marrow stimulation for cartilage regeneration. ..

Abbott Laboratories amplatzer vascular plug
Under intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) guidance, the dissection flap was punctured from the true lumen into the false lumen (FL) approximately 2 cm distal to the caudal end of the thoracic stent graft, and a Radifocus guidewire was advanced into the FL (A) . The fenestration was then dilated using an 8 mm × 4 cm balloon catheter (B) . The modified Excluder aortic extender (Ex-cuff) was deployed at the distal level of the thoracic stent graft (C) . Subsequently, a 16-mm <t>Amplatzer</t> Vascular Plug I, preloaded with a 2.2F microcatheter was deployed at the waist of the modified Ex-cuff (D) . The microcatheter was then withdrawn into the plug, and four detachable coils were placed within the plug (E and F) . Angiography revealed persistent perigraft leakage around the Ex-cuff (G) . Therefore, 33% n-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA) was slowly injected, achieving complete occlusion (H) ( arrowhead , coil-in-plug; arrow , NBCA-Lipiodol). Completion angiography confirmed complete elimination of FL perfusion in the thoracic aortic segment (I) .
