Currently, there are many options in cartilage repair. These cartilage repair techniques can generally be categorized into 3 groups: marrow stimulation—based techniques, osteochondral transfer techniques, and cell-based cartilage repair techniques. This review article presents an overview of these techniques, indications for usage, advantages and disadvantages of each, and a current review of applications in foot and ankle surgery.

Key Words: cartilage repair • osteochondral lesions • biologics • microfracture • autologous chondrocyte implantation • osteochondral transfer • cell-based technologies
