2 Figure 1 Stress strain diagram of Fibrin gel (left) and the injectable plaster (right). The fibrin gel does not show any up build of forces and is poorly adhering to the defect surface. This in contrast to the injectable plaster. Osteoarthritis and Cartilage  , S151-S152DOI: ( /j.joca ) Copyright © Terms and Conditions

3 Figure 2 Applying the injectable plasters in a full thickness chondral defect during an arthroscopic procedure. Before (A) and after (B) the injection of the plaster. The initial fluidity ensures complete filling of the defect. The plaster remained fixed at the defect site after manual flexion of the joint.
