Lateral meniscal allograft transplantation with concomitant osteochondral allograft of the lateral femoral condyle and trochlea: a mid-term outcome case report

Introduction: Meniscal deficiency and osteochondral defects of the knee are difficult pathologies to treat in isolation for knee preservationists.In conjunction, surgical treatment options may appear limited or daunting; however recent literature has demonstrated the feasibility of performing both meniscal allograft transplantation and osteochondral allograft in the same surgical setting.Case presentation: In this case report, we present a 31-year-old male who underwent lateral meniscal allograft transplantation with concomitant osteochondral allograft of both the lateral trochlea and lateral femoral condyle, including surgical technique, postoperative rehabilitation, and 8-year clinical follow-up with patient-reported outcomes.Conclusion: Concomitant lateral meniscal allograft transplantation and double osteochondral allograft procedures demonstrate promising clinical outcomes and graft incorporation, as evidenced by an 8-year follow-up showing excellent graft survival and favorable patient-reported outcomes.This case highlights the potential of combined surgical approaches as a feasible option for addressing meniscal deficiency and multiple osteochondral defects of the knee.
