Femoral Condyle Allograft OATS® Technique

Raffy Mirzayan, MD, (Los Angeles, CA) demonstrates an Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation procedure for resurfacing the damaged articular cartilage of the knee utilizing the Allograft OATS® Instrument Set. The set allows for precise cutting and placement of circular dowels to resurface the cartilage with either a single dowel or for the placement of overlapping dowels to cover the defect. The use of a fresh osteochondral allograft allows for restoration of the articular surface with a mature, hyaline cartilage scaffold that contains viable chondrocytes.
