Abstract

We treated a patient with extensive osteochondritis dissecans of the elbow by an osteochondral graft from a rib. It had consolidated seven months after operation. When seen at follow-up, after seven years and eight months, the elbow was free from pain with an improvement in the range of movement of 24°.
