*The International Cartilage Repair Society has set up an arthroscopic grading system by which cartilage defects can be ranked:
** grade 0: (normal) healthy cartilage
** grade 1: the cartilage has a soft spot, blisters, or superficial wear
** grade 2: minor tears of less than one-half the thickness of the cartilage layer
** grade 3: lesions have deep crevices of more than one-half the thickness of the cartilage layer
** grade 4: the cartilage tear is full thickness and exposes the underlying (subchondral) bone
{{discussion}} Is the grading relevant for coding? IE do we only want to code over a certain grade? Ttenbergen 20:51, 2017 November 12 (CST)
