Oh.<p>I need this. I really do. Not for my knee, but for my ankle.<p>I've been waiting for this. I broke my ankle 4 years ago, destroyed a few things, among which the cartilage between my heel and the bone just above.<p>It hurts when I take my first step in the morning, and it hurts until I fall asleep. Every day. 4 years.<p>This would change my life.
Interesting given that this just came up here recently: <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29399590" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29399590</a><p>Does anyone have any additional insight into how big a deal mass produced synthetic cartilage would be, and specific examples of what it could be used for?
