AMIC® Chondro-Gide® Joelho
AMIC® Chondro-Gide® é um tratamento minimamente invasivo realizado em um único tempo cirúrgico que utiliza Condrogênse Autóloga Induzida por Matriz (AMIC®) em combinação com Chondro-Gide® para reparar lesões de cartilagem de todos os tamanhos. Respaldado por mais de 10 anos de sucesso clínico, AMIC® Chondro-Gide® é um tratamento eficiente e de excelente custo-benefício para reparar a cartilagem do joelho danificada, aliviando ou prevenindo a dor, e retardando a progressão da lesão.
AMIC® Chondro-Gide® combina estimulação medular com o uso de Chondro-Gide®, o qual recobre e protege ambos o super coágulo resultante da estimuação medular e o tecido de regeneração.4 O procedimento pode ser realizado através de uma mini-artrotomia ou por via artroscópica. Biocompatível e completamente reabsorvível, Chondro-Gide® potencializa a capacidade de cura do próprio corpo.
Benefícios
Com sua estrutura de dupla face especialmente fabricada, Chondro-Gide® proporciona um ambiente protetor que nutre o crescimento de um novo tecido.5 Membrana de colágeno tipo I/III,Bio-derivada.1

Evidências científicas AMIC® Joelho
AMIC® Chondro-Gide® demonstrou ser um tratamento eficaz para tratar lesões de cartilagem de todos os tamanhos no joelho. Estudos clínicos demonstram eficácia utilizando AMIC® Chondro-Gide® com ambas as técnicas: mini-artrotomia ou artroscopia por mais de 10 anos.14
Resultado superior à Micro fratura, Após 2 anos
Em um estudo randomizado, controlado, de 47 pacientes em 2 centros, uma deterioração significante foi verificada após 2 anos de follow-up com micro fraturas (sem Chondro-Gide®). Os escores de dor e funcional (ICRS e Cincinnati) permaneceram estáveis ou até mesmo melhoraram com AMIC®, enquanto os escores de dor e funcional para o grupo de micro fraturas apresentou piora nos resultados.

Artroscópica ou Mini-Artrotomia, ambas dão igualmente bons resultados
Em um estudo retrospectivo, Schagemann et al.16 compararam os resultados clínicos dos procedimentos AMIC® Chondro-Gide® que foram realizados como cirurgias artroscópicas ou mini-cirurgias abertas. O estudo acompanhou pacientes por até 2 anos. De acordo com a Visual Analog Scale (VAS) dos pacientes, escores Lysholm e Knee injury and Osteoarthrithis Outcome Scores (KOOS), ambas as abordagens cirúrgicas produziram resultados igualmente positivos.
Primeira Meta-Análise de 12 estudos AMIC® Chondro-Gide® incluindo 375 Pacientes
Recentemente, (2019) em uma revisão sistemática e meta-análise dos resultados de AMIC®, os autores avaliaram lesões condrais e osteocondrais grus III/IV no joelho com um tamanho médio de lesão de 4.24 cm2 com um follow-up superior a 7 anos.
A utilização de AMIC® Chondro-Gide® nos tamanhos de lesões, que estão acima do limite recomendado para micro fraturas, reduziram significativamente dor e melhoraram a função do início ao follow-up. A meta-análise registra que o procedimento AMIC® Chondro-Gide® melhora significativamente resultados funcionais e de dor nas articulações dos joelhos acometidos por lesões condrais e osteocondrais. Os resultados demonstraram que a melhora foi mantida acima de 5 anos, o que confirma o sucesso de longo prazo de AMIC® Chondro-Gide® em lesões grandes, acima de 4 cm2, grau III e IV.17
ACI-C e AMIC® Chondro-Gide® fornecem bons resultados após 2 anos
Fossum, et al., (2019) conduziu um estudo prospectivo, randomizado, controlado para avaliar os resultados de ACI-C e AMIC® em defeitos condrais e osteocondrais no fêmur distal e patela. Não foram verificadas diferenças significativas entre os resultados de ACI-C e AMIC® nos períodos de 1 ano e 2 anos.
Os autores concluiram que AMIC® pode ser considerado uma alternativa clinicamente igual, porém mais barata ao ACI-C, devido ao AMIC® ser realizado em um único procedimento cirúrgico.18
