Excerpt

Adult articular cartilage lacks the inherent ability to heal [9]. Left untreated, isolated defects may progress to diffuse osteoarthritis [1]. Cartilage-defect reconstruction has been described using an autologous bone cartilage plug that can be harvested from the non-weight bearing portion of the knee. Osteochondral autograft transplantation (OAT) has been used extensively in knee and other large joints [3, 10, 32]. While few reports exist for this procedure in small joints of the hand [5, 18, 21, 24, 25, 33], objective long-term results are lacking. The purpose of this study was to report the long-term results in four patients who underwent osteochondral autologous transplantation (OAT) for isolated chondral defects of the metacarpal head. …
