Figure 11b. The osteoarticular transplant (OATs) procedure (cont’d). Counterclockwise from top left. The harvested donor “plug” is made to exactly fit the size and contour of the damaged recipient region. It is inserted flush with the surrounding normal cartilage. Over 6 to 12 weeks, the graft will heal to the patient’s underlying bone.
