Abstract
Osteochondral defects in the rabbit knee were filled with a TCP-collagen mixture. In the femoral condyles a fibrous tissue was formed in the defects similar to that seen in control defects. In the tibial plateau defects were made with penetration of the underlying epiphysis. Repair tissue was formed resembling articular cartilage.Keywords
