The Pilot Study of Fibrin with Temporomandibular Joint Derived Synovial Stem Cells in Repairing TMJ Disc Perforation
Figure 2
(a) Rat TMJ discs were obtained from mandibular condyle (C: condyle and D: TMJ disc); (b) TMJ disc perforation of 2 mm in diameter was surgically made by a puncher; (c) scaffolds with or without cells (arrow) were inserted into the perforation of disc and then coated the explants with pure fibrin before subcutaneous implantation (D: TMJ disc and F: fibrin).
