Morphological abnormalities such as cam deformity or growth disturbances can have a detrimental effect on the smooth function of the hip joint. This case reports an attempt to salvage the hip joint of a young patient with a posttraumatic growth disturbance of the femoral head using a fresh osteochondral allograft. This treatment has been used very rarely in the femoral head due to the presumed tenuous blood supply of the head and the perceived risk of nonunion or progressive avascular necrosis. The patient in this case had persistent pain and mechanical symptoms leading to hip replacement. A detailed analysis of the retrieved femoral head demonstrated durability and healing of the grafts based on gross inspection, histology of bone and cartilage, and microCT analysis. This case is the first report to our knowledge of a detailed histological and radiographic analysis of the fate of osteochondral allografts of the femoral head. We hope that this case provides justification for the use of osteochondral allografts of the femoral head for other indications such as femoral head fractures, avascular necrosis, and benign epiphyseal tumors of the femoral head in an effort to avoid arthroplasty in young patients.
