Abstract
|
|
|
Osteochondral injury due to the trauma of the hand is relatively common. If the size of the osteochondral fracture fragment is large, open reduction and internal fixation are often feasible in treating these problems. However, arthroplasty using osteochondral graft is more preferred when the particle is small and articular surface is comminuted or fully defected. There are many reports of osteochondral graft using the costal osteochondral graft but the osteochondral graft using the interphalangeal joint of the toe is rarely reported. Thoroughly reviewed with relevant articles, this report presents a case of a 33 year old male who was successfully treated with osteochondral autograft using the proximal interphalangeal joint of the toe due to the traumatic osteochondral defect in the head of the second proximal phalanx.
