RESUMEN
Autogenous osteochondral transplantation is a relatively new procedure for the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the ankle joint. The procedure is reserved for larger stage III and stage IV lesions. The corresponding author has had good preliminary results with a high level of patient satisfaction. The procedure is relatively straightforward and reliable. The need for a second surgical site has not proved to be a great disadvantage of the procedure; no complications have occurred to date at the knee donor site. This procedure, which was first described for use in the knee joint, shows excellent promise for use in the ankle and warrants larger investigational studies to assess outcomes.
