“…Lesions of the plateau can also be addressed through grafting of a size-matched tibial plateau. 57 Autologous Chondrocyte/Matrix-Associated Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) is a two-stage procedure in which chondrocytes are harvested from the knee, typically from the femoral notch or another nonprimary weight-bearing surface, followed by enzymatic processing, culture, and finally, reintroduction at the site of the defect. The chondrocytes are contained within the defect by using a periosteal or collagen membrane patch (►Fig.…”

Focal chondral defects (FCDs) of the knee can be a debilitating condition that can clinically translate into pain and dysfunction in young patients with high activity demands. Both the understanding of the etiology of FCDs and the surgical management of these chondral defects has exponentially grown in recent years. This is reflected by the number of surgical procedures performed for FCDs, which is now approximately 200,000 annually. This fact is also apparent in the wide variety of available surgical approaches to FCDs. Although simple arthroscopic debridement or microfracture are usually the first line of treatment for smaller lesions, chondral lesions that involve a larger area or depth require restorative procedures such as osteochondral allograft transplantation or other cell-based techniques. Given the prevalence of FCDs and the increased attention on treating these lesions, a comprehensive understanding of management from diagnosis to rehabilitation is imperative for the treating surgeon. This narrative review aims to describe current concepts in the treatment of large FCDs through providing an algorithmic approach to selecting interventions to address these lesions as well as the reported outcomes in the literature.
