Summary
Objective: To describe the one-month morphological appearance of autogenous osteochondral grafting in a dog with stifle osteochondrosis. Method: Osteochondral autografting was performed in one stifle of an eight-month-old dog with spontaneously occurring bilateral osteochondrosis. Result: Histopathological analysis performed one month after surgery confirmed partial integration of the grafts and osteochondral survival. Clinical significance: Autogenous osteochondral grafting in stifle osteochondrosis results in acceptable graft survival postoperatively and is worthy of further evaluation.
