Clinical outcome after 2 years of implantation of BioSeed-C in osteoarthritic defects. The Modified Cincinnati Knee Rating System score and Lysholm score are given for 22 patients with radiologically confirmed osteoarthritic defects at 2 years after implantation of BioSeed-C. Osteoarthritis was defined according to a Kellgren-Lawrence score of 2 or more. Scores are presented as medians; the ends of the boxes define the 25th and 75th centiles, and error bars the 10th and 90th centiles. Where indicated (asterisks), differences were statistically significant (**p = 0.0074, ***p < 0.0001) compared with the preoperative situation.
