• • Microfracture

  • Microfracture cartilage repair is performed by creating tiny fractures in the underlying bone of an OCD lesion using Chondro Picks. The resulting blood clot initiates the development of fibrocartilage, which often will fill the defect site.
• • Microfracture

  • Microfracture surgery is an articular cartilage repair technique performed by creating small fractures in the underlying bone in order for new fibrocartilage to form. Arthrex provides products, including the PowerPick, allowing surgeons to effectively perform microfracture surgery safely and reproducibly.
• • Removal of Cartilage

  • Depending on surgeon preference, a shaver or curette is utilized to debride damaged or diseased articular cartilage surrounding the site of the chondral defect.
