Fig 1 An anteroposterior radiograph showed a bone defect in the femoral medial condyle (arrow). Arthroscopy Techniques 2014 3, e111-e114DOI: (10.1016/j.eats.2013.09.003) Copyright © 2014 Arthroscopy Association of North America Terms and Conditions
Fig 2 Preoperative MRI (right knee, T2-weighted gradient-echo image, coronal view) showed a partial discoid medial meniscus tear, an osteochondral lesion (measuring 10 mm × 28 mm) in the femoral medial condyle, and a chondral lesion in the tibial medial plateau.

Fig 4 A postoperative anteroposterior radiograph showed disappearance of the bone defect and flattening in the femoral medial condyle (arrow). Arthroscopy Techniques 2014 3, e111-e114DOI: (10.1016/j.eats.2013.09.003) Copyright © 2014 Arthroscopy Association of North America Terms and Conditions
Fig 5 Postoperative MRI (right knee, T2-weighted spin-echo image, coronal view) showed that the osteochondral lesion had been filled, but the restored medial meniscus displayed increased degenerative changes and abrasion.
