Brief Summary: The study is a randomized, prospective, multicenter, controlled clinical trial of the Episealer Knee System. The Episealer Knee System is intended for subjects with up to two focal femoral knee chondral or osteochondral lesion that is causing pain and/or disability and requires surgical treatment.
Detailed Description: The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and clinical effectiveness of the Episealer Knee System (Episealer Trochlea Solo, Episealer Femoral Twin, and Episealer Condyle Solo) compared to microfracture (with or without debridement) in a group of subjects that require repair of up to 2 focal femoral chondral or osteochondral lesions in the knee. Clinical success will be analyzed via subject reported outcomes to measure function and pain improvements as compared to baseline, incidence of secondary surgical interventions for the treated knee, absence of subsidence or migration through radiographic assessment, and assessment of weight-bearing status.
