“…In summary, the evidence for the use of osteochondral allograft transplantation has to be interpreted carefully. Most series included a small number of patients, studied patients retrospectively, had only a short-or midterm follow-up, or presented no description of the underlying size of the defect [7,46,49,50,52,53] . Additionally, in several of these investigations, patients were lost to followup or were excluded because of graft failure [46,50,52] .…”

“…In contrast to the disadvantages of the AOT and ACI techniques, the main advantages of the microfracture technique include arthroscopic application with no donor site morbidity, fewer wound healing problems, a quick recovery, and a decreased cost. 14,21 The healing capacity of cartilage is limited by its limited vascularity and its contribution to the progressive degeneration of damage. 9 The α-granules of platelets contain a variety of factors (transforming growth factor β, fibroblast growth factor, and platelet-derived growth factor) that promote cartilage matrix synthesis and inhibit the catabolic effects of IL-1β and TNF-α on articular cartilage.…”
