Between the different donor sites, the cartilage thickness of the lateral side of the intercondylar notch was significantly thinner (mean, 1.57 mm; SD, 0.46) than the other standard donor sites (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      &lt; .05). The mean cartilage thickness was 2.35 mm (SD, 0.72) for the posteromedial condyle and 1.96 mm (SD, 0.67) for the posterolateral condyle.
