 | | This appears, at first sight, to be an exception to the statement that cartilage is a non-vascular tissue, but is not so really, for the vessels give no branches to the cartilage substance itself, and the channels may rather be looked upon as involutions of the perichondrium. | | | Humphry has pointed out that these interarticular fibrocartilages serve an important purpose in increasing the varieties of movement in a joint. | | | Their uses are to obliterate the intervals between opposed surfaces in their various motions; to increase the depths of the articular surfaces and give ease to the gliding movements; to moderate the effects of great pressure and deaden the intensity of the shocks to which the parts may be subjected. |

| | Although fibrocartilage often appears to offer the patient significant pain relief, this tissue lacks several key structural components to perform the mechanical functions, as a wear-resistant and as a weight-bearing surface. | | | Mid-sized lesions in patients with moderate symptoms can be treated with a reparative procedure using a marrow-stimulating technique (Microfracture) in an effort to promote a fibrocartilage healing response. | | | Injuries of the articular cartilage that do not penetrate the subchondral bone do not heal and usually progress to the degeneration of the articular surface. |

| | This change gives the appearance that the lateral cartilage is growing toward the midline of the foot, because the fibrocartilage of the lateral cartilage and the digital cushion unite to form a significant structural support for the palmar foot. | | | Although these observations may suggest that the palmar foot will gradually develop the fibrocartilaginous palmar foot while the horse ages, these internal foot changes do not occur with age alone but with proper foot "exercise and stimulation". | | | In the problematic foot, the frog usually does not make ground contact, or, if it does contact the ground, it lacks any significant firm (fibrocartilage) substance of the tissue. |

| | What makes this procedure different from all the healing fibrocartilage techniques is that the live implanted cartilage cells produce a surrounding hyaline matrix which is biochemically similar to normal articular cartilage. | | | This can provide relief of the pain, a return to active function, and presumably a lasting biologic repair. | | | Unfortunately this fibrocartilage has none of the biochemical or mechanical qualities of normal hyaline joint cartilage because it consists of primarily Type I collagen and typically will breakdown over time. |
