{Abstract}: <B>METHODS: </B>A 20-year-old woman presented with a unipolar, 1.8 × 1.8-cm osteochondral defect of the left acetabulum. Osteochondral allograft transplantation was performed using a medial tibial plateau allograft resulting in excellent clinical outcomes across 4 different outcome scores and maintenance of the joint space at 4.3 years postoperatively.<BR><B>CONCLUSIONS: </B>Although previous literature has demonstrated long-term clinical success of osteochondral allograft transplantation in knee, excellent clinical outcomes can also be obtained in the hip. Thus, osteochondral allograft transplantation may be a viable treatment option for adolescents and young adults with concomitant cartilage and subchondral bone hip defects.
