Reverse Microfracture of the Hip Acetabulum: A Technique for the Wave Lesion

The long-term efficacy of the treatment of chondral lesions is very important to prevent hip osteoarthritis. Microfracture, autologous chondrocyte transplantation, and direct chondral repair, among others, are techniques that have shown good results in some cases. We propose a technique to treat wav...

Sumario:The long-term efficacy of the treatment of chondral lesions is very important to prevent hip osteoarthritis. Microfracture, autologous chondrocyte transplantation, and direct chondral repair, among others, are techniques that have shown good results in some cases. We propose a technique to treat wave lesions through reverse microfracture, with bubble decompression and adherence of the natural scar from the detached cartilage.
