title: A case of stifle osteochondrosis treated by osteochondral autogenous grafting. One month morphological follow-up.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To describe the one-month morphological appearance of autogenous osteochondral grafting in a dog with stifle osteochondrosis.
  
  
  METHODS
  Osteochondral autografting was performed in one stifle of an eight-month-old dog with spontaneously occurring bilateral osteochondrosis.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Histopathological analysis performed one month after surgery confirmed partial integration of the grafts and osteochondral survival.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  Autogenous osteochondral grafting in stifle osteochondrosis results in acceptable graft survival postoperatively and is worthy of further evaluation.
