TETEC AG: Your expert for biological cartilage regeneration
Tissue Engineering

Innovative treatments with autologous cells

Tissue engineering describes the artificial production of cells outside the body in order to replace or to regenerate diseased tissue in patients. These novel therapeutic methods open up new possibilities for biological reconstruction: cartilage, bone and skin defects can be treated with autologous tissue.

Our tissue engineering products offer key benefits: rejection reactions to the treatment are avoided and damaged tissue is regenerated naturally.

medical laboratory

As a biopharmaceutical company with over 20 years of experience, we have made it our mission to sustainably improve the long-term health and quality of life of each individual through cell-based therapy innovations.

We are the European market leader in cartilage cell therapy, ATMPs (advanced therapy medicinal products) and suitable biomaterials. We count on extensive specialist expertise, the highest quality standards and the latest scientific findings and methods for our products – with care and precision, from the first development phase to delivery.

Cartilage defects

M-ACI procedure

Matrix-associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (M-ACI) allows full-thickness joint cartilage defects to be regenerated by autologous cartilage cells – preserving the joint and only requiring minimally invasive surgery.
