✦ Synopsis

Osteochondral defects in the rabbit knee were filled with a TCP-collagen mixture. In the femoral condyles a fibrous tissue was formed in the defects similar to that seen in control defects. In the tibial plateau defects were made with penetration of the underlying epiphysis. Repair tissue was formed resembling articular cartilage.

## Abstract Thirteen adult female rabbits underwent unilateral osteotomy of the proximal tibia. In nine animals, 30° of valgus angulation was created; in four animals, osteotomy without angulation was performed. After a 12‐week survival period, the knee joints were processed for histology by staini
