Where in your knee is the OCA going? Patella or a condyle? Patella tends to be a little easier. How old are you I may have missed it earlier.
I worked for an orthopedic surgeon in nyc for 3 years who did this exact procedure multiple times a week. The success rate is more like 80% when looking at recent studies.
If the OCA is going in the condyle and you have more than just a central large lesion it may not work. Generally the OCA works best if it’s just filling in a pot hole. 60% loss sounds like a lot.

loss in femoral condyle....whatever that is.
I also have thickening medial collateral ligament and "intrasubstance" on medial collateral ligament.
Not sure really what that means. I'm getting a 2nd opinion regardless.
Knee is swollen again from recumbent bike. No squats or step ups at all, kinda pisses me off I'm going back for a knee drain. Probably every 2-3 months even though I ice 2-3x's per day.
