Our study proved that CGC could effectively prevent cartilage surface and chondrocytes from cryoinjury after LN freezing. Freezing articular cartilage surrounded with high concentration of CGC can be a better alternative to preserve articular cartilage during limb salvage surgery for malignant bone tumor.
