Abstract:
We describe a patient who presented with an unstable osteochondritis dissecans (OD) fragment of the right knee demonstrated by MRI. He subsequently underwent surgical fixation with absorbable pins. Follow-up MRI showed the healing OD lesion without the artifact associated with metallic pins.
