OPEN OSTEOCHONDRAL AUTOGRAFT TRANSFER RESULTS IN MORE FREQUENT REOPERATION THAN OPEN ALLOGRAFT TRANSFER IN THE PEDIATRIC KNEE

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2020 | Tyler B. Hall, Max J. Hyman, Neeraj M. Patel

Background: Osteochondral autograft (OAU) and allograft (OAL) transfer are surgical options for sizeable articular cartilage lesions in the knee. In the pediatric population, there is little data on the patients undergoing these procedures or evidence to support one technique over another. Specifically, the rate of reoperation in these young patients is unknown. Hypothesis/Purp...

Category: Ankle Introduction/Purpose: Osteochondral lesions of talus (OLTs) are often treated primarily by fragment excision, abrasion, drilling, or microfracture. However, OLT accompanying with large cyst has been challenged to yield good outcome nevertheless of many surgical options. Recent study showed significant high failure rate of arthroscopic marrow stimulation treatmen...

Abstract Glenoid osteochondral defects can be a significant source of pain and disability in an active population. Many treatments are available, but most joint‐preserving procedures are limited to debridement, abrasion chondroplasty, or marrow‐stimulation techniques, all of which depend on healthy underlying bone and none of which address underlying bony pathology. Osteochondr...

Objectives: Chondral lesions about the knee are a challenging clinical entity particularly among high performance athletes whose return to play is dependant on the quality and durability of chondral repair. At our institution, we favor osteochondral autograft plug transfer (OATs) when lesion size and location allow, as we believe it results in the most durable cartilage repair...
