(regulatory requirement) * The patient has an acute Treponema pallidum (syphilis) infection. (regulatory requirement) * The patient has an active hepatitis B or C infection with verified antigens. Patients with a cured hepatitis B or C infection and/or verified antibodies are not excluded. (regulatory requirement) * Patient is pregnant, breast feeding or anticipates becoming pregnant within 24 months after surgery. * Patient is currently participating or has participated in any other clinical study within 3 months prior to the screening visit. * Patient has known current or recent history of illicit drug or alcohol abuse or dependence defined as the continued use of alcohol or drugs despite the development of social, legal or health problems. * Patient has any other condition, which, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the patient unsuitable for the study. * Known allergies for porcine collagen (scaffold), penicillin or streptomycin (manufacturing) * Nail-patella syndrome * Patients who will likely benefit from conservative therapy, such as physiotherapy, medical training therapy and pain medication * Patients with increased anesthesiological and surgical risks (e.g. known or predicted difficult airway, myocardial infarction \<60 days prior to surgery) * Patients with increased bleeding risk (e.g. coagulopathies) * Patients on anticoagulants whose anticoagulant therapy cannot be interrupted as appropriate to the given agent(s) and underlying condition * Patients with any active infections
