Abstract

A case of an osteochondral defect of the second metatarsal head treated with autogenous osteochondral transplantation from the talonavicular joint is presented. At 6-months follow-up, the patient had returned to previous activities with no complaints. MRI evaluation showed good congruency of the joint surface and complete incorporation of the osteochondral autograft.
