HemiCAP-Waveî Implant in Salvage Procedure of a Large Trochlea Lesionin the Knee in a 37 Year Old Former Active Man

We present a case report using this inlay resurfacing prosthesis as a salvage procedure in a 37 year old man with a large trochlea defect after 6 former cartilage procedures. The early follow-up results after treatment with this customized metal mini-prosthesis in a challenging young active patient with a focal (osteo) chondral lesions and a history of failed previous cartilage surgery demonstrated significant pain and subjective outcome improvements at 4 years.
