Compressibility of Osteochondral Autograft Transfer Donor Grafts: A Comparison of Different Donor Regions and How Much Shortening Occurs of Plugs After Impaction

BACKGROUND: Osteochondral autograft transfer (OAT) is a useful technique for full-thickness cartilage lesions of the distal femur. Various techniques recommend harvesting a plug 2 mm longer than the recipient hole to allow for graft impaction. Grafts with limited compressibility may not sit flush wh...
