The radiographic findings in 13 joints successfully reconstructed with free perichondrial grafts from the rib are reported. Radiography was performed during a period of 13 to 40 months postoperatively. Definite cortical demarcation occurred after 8 to 11 months and had increased 11 to 16 months following surgery. In 3 cases the final examination of 2 metacarpophalangeal joints and one proximal interphalangeal joint was completed with arthrography which demonstrated that the articular surfaces appeared even although the cortical bone contours were somewhat irregular. The extent of the joint spaces largely resembled that in healthy controls.
报告了13个关节采用肋骨游离软骨膜移植成功重建后的影像学表现。术后13至40个月期间进行了放射检查。术后8至11个月出现明确的皮质分界，术后11至16个月分界增加。3例中，对2个掌指关节和1个近端指间关节进行了关节造影最终检查，结果显示关节表面虽然皮质骨轮廓有些不规则，但看起来是平整的。关节间隙的范围与健康对照者的大致相似。
