Abstract:
An arthroscopic method for the treatment of osteochondritis dissecans lesions in the knee is described. The technique involves using autogenous bone pegs for arthroscopic transfixion of femoral osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesions. The method represents a simple biological alternative for arthroscopic fixation of OCD lesions.
