A member asked:

Age 22 male suffering from ocd. 2.8 cm lesion at mfc. what are the changes of healing using microfracture drilling. internal fixation was unsuccessful?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Pain relief possible: Microfracture can reduce symptoms and pain successfully 80% of the time. Unfortunately, the cartilage defect persists, and the results can deteriorate. Cartilage plug techniques exist that could fill the defect if microfracture does not work.
