Popis: Post-traumatic osteochondral defects of the distal tibial plafond may be a more common cause of pain and osteoarthritis than previously recognized. However, the literature on the surgical treatment of osteochondral defects of the distal tibial plafond is significantly limited. This case report presents the operative technique and clinical outcome of osteochondral autograft transfer for an osteochondral defect on the anterolateral surface of the distal tibial plafond. A case of transfer of osteochondral autograft plugs to repair the anterolateral surface of the distal tibial plafond and prevent progression of forward displacement of the talus in a 25-year-old man who presented with pain in his right ankle, following a history of trauma.
