Abstract
A 17-year-old boy who played baseball presented with swelling, pain, and crepitation in the right ring finger proximal interphalangeal joint after a remote trauma. Multiple osteochondral defects were identified on opposing articular surfaces. Cylindrical osteochondral grafts of 2.0, 2.5, and 5.0 mm were applied to the defects and congruency was restored. We confirmed vascularity of the grafts by magnetic resonance. The boy returned to full sports activities. No signs of arthritis were seen at 4-year follow-up radiographs.
