Articular cartilage defects are not common in the glenohumeral joint and are mostly found in patients after shoulder trauma, in patients with recurrent instability, or in patients who underwent previous surgical treatment. Articular cartilage defects lead to pain and loss of motion, consequently causing shoulder function impairment and reducing quality of life. In young patients, the use of osteochondral allografts for the treatment of humeral head defects may avoid well-known complications of shoulder arthroplasty. The goal of this Technical Note is to describe a step-by-step protocol for the harvesting, transport, and preservation of fresh humeral head osteochondral tissue for use in allograft transplantation.
关节软骨缺损在盂肱关节并不常见，大多见于肩部创伤后的患者、复发性不稳定患者或既往接受过手术治疗的患者。关节软骨缺损会导致疼痛和活动受限，进而造成肩部功能障碍并降低生活质量。对于年轻患者，使用同种异体骨软骨移植治疗肱骨头缺损可避免肩关节置换术的一些众所周知的并发症。本技术说明的目的是描述用于异体移植的新鲜肱骨头骨软骨组织的采集、运输和保存的分步方案。
