-. All of the bones are a complex group of living organs that are composed of multiple cells, protein fibers and a range of minerals. MRI is the most sensitive imaging for OLT with a sensitivity of 96%. In both studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed prior to open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Med Sci Monit. Les lésions du cartilage articulaire du genou sont fréquentes. Surgical treatment of transchondral talar-dome fractures (osteochondritis dissecans). reported a reoperation rate of 25% with development of moderate or severe ankle arthritic changes, pain due to hardware-related complications, graft collapse, and non-union/delayed union at osteotomy site as reasons for reoperation with a failure rate of 13.2%. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc. This is often referred to as a chip inside your ankle joint. [12] Second, arterial supply to the talar dome and the overlying cartilage is by a retrograde vascular network that comes from the talar neck with additional watershed areas showing poor perfusion in the posteromedial, posterolateral, and mid-medial segments of the subchondral bone. Osteochondral lesions of the talus encompass important clinical conditions encountered in day-to-day practice. Osteochondral allograft transplantation has been performed for the past 50 or more years with several studies demonstrating satisfactory outcomes. There are numerous reasons that make the talar cartilage and the subchondral bone prone to vascular insufficiency. | 2020 Jul;14(2):64-71. doi: 10.5704/MOJ.2007.014. Operative techniques can be broadly classified as cartilage repair, regeneration, and replacement techniques [Table 2]. of the talus but at the cost of a hi gh rate of. Methods: The study included 28 patients (17 males, 11 females; mean age 30.3 years; range 22-55 years) who had osteochondral lesions of the talus and were treated by arthroscopic surgery. Foot Ankle Clin. Finite Element Analysis of the Effect of Talar Osteochondral Defects of Different Depths on Ankle Joint Stability. However, if we cannot get insurance approval for this material due to cost (about $7,000), we will use the aforementioned BioCartilage product instead. Osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs) continue to be a challenge for the treating surgeon, especially when lesions are refractory to marrow stimulation techniques. Osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) are those that affect the chondral and subchondral areas of the talus. Clinical Outcomes of Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus With Large Subchondral Cysts Treated With Osteotomy and Autologous Chondral Grafts: Minimum 2-Year Follow-up and Second-Look Evaluation. The cost-per-point change in functional outcome score was $200.59 for MFx, $313.84 for OAT, and $536.59 for ACI-1. Osteochondral lesions of the talus are injuries to the cartilage in the bone inside the ankle joint. Plain radiography is the initial investigation of choice in a clinically suspected case of OLT. Arthroscopic treatment of transchondral talar dome fractures: a long-term follow-up study. The diagnosis of cartilage damage (osteochondral lesion, also known as talar dome) is often done with x-rays and/or an MRI. There are a number of treatment options. [38], This technique involves harvesting osteochondral plugs from donor sites such as non-weight-bearing portions of the knee and implantation of these plugs to the areas of osteochondral defects. -, Baker CL, Jr, Morales RW. BMJ Open. Osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) are those that affect the chondral and subchondral areas of the talus. [53], In summary, outcomes following surgery are variable and thus treatment strategy has to be tailored to every patient depending on specific factors. -, Baums MH, Heidrich G, Schultz W, et al. Osteochondral cylinders are harvested from lesser marginal weight-bearing areas of the knee joint and press-fitted into the prepared defect. INTRODUCTION. Commonly, multiple cylinders have to … OLT encompass a wide variety of disorders that are both difficult to diagnose and also to treat with varying functional outcomes. [2] Although majority may be associated with trauma, some may develop insidiously. [50] Kreulen et al. These authors evaluate the effectiveness of procedures such as microfracture and arthroscopy, and recent innovations such as … This consists of particles of live cartilage that enable the surgeon to truly lay down the best quality cartilage. BMJ Case Rep. 2020 Jul 8;13(7):e234595. [48], It is a 2-stage procedure where in hyaline cartilage is harvested either from the neck of the talus or non-weight portion of the knee joint, this cartilage is then cultured to grow chondrocytes which are implanted back to the area of defect and secured using a periosteal flap as a second-stage procedure. Furthermore, juvenile cartilage has been shown to possess copious cellular activity that results in formation of abundant extracellular matrix than its adult counterpart. Scranton Type V Osteochondral Defects of Talus: Does one-stage Arthroscopic Debridement, Microfracture and Plasma Rich in Growth Factor cause the Healing of Cyst and Cessation of Progression to Osteoarthritis? 2016 Dec;24(12):3722-3729. doi: 10.1007/s00167-014-3389-3. | Osteochondral lesions (OCLs) are focal articular injuries of the subchondral bone and the cartilage with a multifaceted cause (trauma, ligament instability, ischemic necrosis, malalignment, endocrine diseases, and others). [2], Microfracture is a technique of perforating the subchondral bone to allow the progenitor cells from the bone marrow to infiltrate into the lesion [Figure 2]. Get the latest public health information from CDC: https://www.coronavirus.gov, Get the latest research information from NIH: https://www.nih.gov/coronavirus, Find NCBI SARS-CoV-2 literature, sequence, and clinical content: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sars-cov-2/. Outcome. A review was performed of 30 athletes with 31 OLTs that were refractory to marrow stimulation or … Treating osteochondral lesions of the talus can pose challenges and delayed diagnosis due to late presentation after an ankle sprain. 1980;62:646–652. At this point the doctors in Portugal suggest surgery to fraguemento extraction and treatment of osteochondral lesion of about 12mm in size with the … These eventually would form fibrocartilage at the defect. Series shows the case of a 25-years-old man, a sports and physically active patient, with chronic ankle pain, a lateral talus osteochondral lesion (OCL), and chronic ankle instability. Orthopade. Effect of autologous adipose-derived mesenchymal stem cell therapy in the treatment of an osteochondral lesion of the ankle. The knee and the ankle joint are the most commonly involved joints for OCLs in the lower extremity. J ISAKOS. Despite the advantages, the reported failure rate is 40% with lesions of area >125 mm2 and male sex associated with significantly higher risk of clinical failure. [2] The rationale is to form a hyaline cartilage at the defect from pluripotent cells instead of fibrocartilage that forms after microfracture alone. © Copyright 2020 – Journal of Arthroscopic Surgery and Sports Medicine – All rights reserved.Published by Scientific Scholar on behalf of Indian Arthroscopy Society. Therapeutic arthroscopy with microfracture leads to fibrocartilaginous repair and is an effective treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus. The skeletal system is made up of all the joints and bones in the body. Arthroscopic debridement is recommended as the initial intervention, unless primary fixation of a loose osteochondral lesion is required. [1] This is a broad terminology that encompasses a variety of disorders including osteochondritis dissecans, osteochondral fractures, and osteochondral defects. The etiology of osteochondral lesions of the talus is frequently attributed to ankle trauma but these lesions can also stem from alcohol abuse, chronic steroid use, endocrine abnormalities or genetics. 1 Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Academic Medical Centre, University of Amsterdam, P.O. The tibia and fibula bones sit above and to the sides of the talus, forming the ankle joint. FIGURE 71-1 Osteochondral lesion of the talus. Une lésion localisée ou diffuse est ainsi retrouvée chez deux tiers des patients en cas d’exploration arthroscopique d’un genou douloureux.1–4 Les faibles capacités de cicatrisation du cartilage au-delà d’une certaine taille sont expliquées par sa nature avasculaire et les facultés très limitées de régénération des chondrocytes.5–7 Les lésions cartilagineuses sont des facteurs de risque d’arthrose post-traumatique.8,9 De nombreuses technique… The purpose of this study is to evaluate the outcomes of lesions treated with osteochondral allograft transplantation. Availability of fresh donor allografts and the associated cost is also a concern in developing countries. Abstract: The objective of this study was to assess the outcome of osteochondral allograft (OCA) transplantation as a salvage procedure after various cartilage repair surgeries. This initial evaluation often leads to a broad differential diagnosis including ankle synovitis, impingement, occult fractures, and early ankle/subtalar arthritis.[2]. Further sufficiently powered, randomized clinical trials with uniform methodology and validated outcome measures should be initiated to compare the outcome of surgical strategies for OCD of the talus. There is limited understanding of cartilage damage and its repair. Surgical treatment options for the management of focal chondral and osteochondral lesions in the knee include biological solutions and focal metal implants. [27] Toale et al. INTRODUCTION. Seven studies described the results of non-operative treatment, 4 of excision, 13 of excision and curettage, 18 of excision, curettage and bone marrow stimulation (BMS), 4 of an autogenous bone graft, 2 of transmalleolar drilling (TMD), 9 of osteochondral transplantation (OATS), 4 of autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), 3 of retrograde drilling and 1 of fixation. High-impact activities, such as running and jumping, should be avoided until 6 to 12 months after surgery. [6] In case of clinically suspected lesion with negative radiographs, advanced imaging options such as CT and MRI are useful. Lesions with large cystic areas, diffuse arthritic changes, ankle malalignment, and prior history of infections are contraindications to this procedure. Table 3 below presents the base-case deterministic results when using an OCA graft price of £3892.50 (€4174) based on costs in Spain. The blood supply to the talus is not as rich as many other bones in the body, and as a result injuries to the talus sometimes are more difficult to heal than similar injuries in other bones. If structured rehabilitation is unsuccessful, then … Autologous chondrocyte transplantation for treating cartilage defects of the talus. This procedure is a single-stage procedure and as it does not require a press fit or graft contouring due to its particulate nature, it can be carried out arthroscopically. 2013 Jun 5;95(11):1045-54. doi: 10.2106/JBJS.L.00773. 2020 Jul 28;8(7):2325967120937798. doi: 10.1177/2325967120937798. OCD lesions are also called osteochondritis dissecans or osteochondral fractures. 2005;26:583–589. [13] All these factors make the talus prone for developing osteochondral lesions. Systematic review of treatment strategies for osteochondral defects of the talar dome. For each treatment strategy, study size weighted success rates were calculated. [29] Return to sports rate after microfracture is reported to be 76%, though most patients may not be able to achieve the pre-injury level. [2] Lee et al. [21] Weigelt et al. 2003 Jun;8(2):233-42, viii-ix. They also proposed the radiological classification that is widely employed even to the present day. Clipboard, Search History, and several other advanced features are temporarily unavailable. Patient age for all such options is a significant restrictive factor since transplanted cells and marrow cells tend to lose regenerative potential … Bai L, Guan S, Liu S, You T, Xie X, Chen P, Zhang W. Orthop J Sports Med. The major advantages of arthroscopic surgery are that it is associated with a faster recovery due to less pain and earlier mobilisation of the ankle than after conventional open surgery. [Diagnosis and treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus]. [16] Ferkel et al. We use cookies to ensure that we give you the best experience on our website. [28] Despite these findings, microfracture still seems to be resulting in good functional outcomes. 2020 Aug 21;26:e921823. Furthermore, PRP group had significantly better outcomes than the HA group. [3] Conservative treatment mainly consists of rest, avoiding sporting activities, cast immobilization with or without NSAIDs, and intraarticular injection of platelet-rich plasma (PRP) and hyaluronic acid (HA). Osteochondral autograft transfer system (OATS), Particulated juvenile cartilage allograft transfer (PJCAT), Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI), Matrix-induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI), I: Cystic lesion at the dome with intact roof on all sides, Medial/lateral lesions, subchondral cysts. Arthroscopic surgery is sometimes referred to as “keyhole surgery” as it is performed through very small incisions. in 1984 emphasized that these lesions should not be called as osteochondritis dissecans but be grouped under a broader term “osteochondral lesions of the talar dome.”[7] The arthroscopic treatment of these lesions was first described by Parisien and Pritsch et al. 2020 Feb 9;10(2):e033850. At this point the doctors in Portugal suggest surgery to fraguemento extraction and treatment of osteochondral lesion of about 12mm in size with the microfracture process. Thus, treatment should be individualized to every patient, with adequate counseling regarding the outcomes and associated complications of that technique. In some rare cases, osteochondral lesions can occur for no apparent reason. Berndt and Harty classification is the staging system that is widely employed for describing OLT on plain radiographs. of 30 patients comparing intra-articular injection of PRP and HA concluded that both PRP and HA resulted in improved function and decreased pain that maintained for at least 6 months. There are only a few recent studies that have reported the outcomes following non-operative management. and Hepple et al. found PRP as an adjunct to arthroscopic microfracture for the treatment of OLT resulted in improved functional score status at an average follow-up of 16.2 months. There is also the possibility to associate the treatment with growth factors. Osteochondral lesions are caused by trauma, osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), or osteonecrosis. Retrograde drilling and fixation scored 88 and 89%, respectively. OATS uses bone-cartilage cylinder grafts from a non-weight bearing portion of another joint and transplants these on the site of the defect. These repetitive injuries may result in microtrauma in an already vulnerable bone with sparse vascularity causing OLT. Surgical technique should be mainly chosen depending on the status of the overlying cartilage, size, and containment of the lesion. Varied etiology and non-specific clinical signs make the diagnosis of these lesions challenging. They are most commonly associated with ankle trauma and wh… Guney et al. | Both non-operative and operative modalities have been described for the treatment of OLT. [5] The sole indication for operative treatment at presentation is an acute lesion with displacement. [] This is a broad terminology that encompasses a variety of disorders including osteochondritis dissecans, osteochondral fractures, and osteochondral defects. National Center for Biotechnology Information, Unable to load your collection due to an error, Unable to load your delegates due to an error. in their study of 22 patients with successful initial non-operative treatment of OLT reported only minimal symptoms, a low failure rate, and no significant progression of ankle arthritis at a minimum follow-up of 10 years, though a substantial number of patients (>1/3rd) reported a decrease in sporting activity. in their systematic review of 15 studies with a mean follow-up of 72 months also highlighted surface damage in 76% of patients on follow-up MRI that could be a harbinger for long-term problems. [6] Kouvalchouk et al. Verhagen RA, Struijs PA, Bossuyt PM, van Dijk CN. 2016. Patient’s consent not required as patients identity is not disclosed or compromised. Although outcomes of most of these techniques are promising, it is hard to recommend one procedure over another due to lack of comparative analyses. 2006;88:303–308. J Bone Joint Surg Am. Malays Orthop J. Osteochondral transplantation of autologous graft for the treatment of osteochondral lesions of talus: 5- to 7-year follow-up. Allograft juvenile articular cartilage transplantation for treatment of talus osteochondral defects. Comparison of autologous osteoperiosteal cylinder and osteochondral graft transplantation in the treatment of large cystic osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs): a protocol for a non-inferiority randomised controlled trial. Current treatment options include minced bone and cartilage paste, 1 mosaicplasty, 2 allogeneic osteochondral transplantation, 3-5 combined bone and chondrocyte transplantation, the so-called sandwich technique, and synthetic osteochondral implants. 30 In addition, the publication used to obtain the costs associated with MFx, OAT, and ACI-1 only accounts for the costs up to 1 year postsurgery, so any required revisions after this period are unaccounted for. [45] Due to high rates of reoperation and failure, it is necessary to opt for other less morbid techniques initially, keeping this technique of osteochondral allografting as a bail out procedure in failed cases. The key cost driver is the cost of the graft, but over the lifetime horizon, there are QALYs gained from using OCA, and there are cost savings later due to fewer people needing a TKA in the OCA arm. [2] Decision-making depends mainly on the stability of the overlying cartilage, size, and the containment of the lesion (shoulder and non-shoulder type lesion). Clinical examination may reveal effusion at the ankle, tenderness over the talus on palpation, decreased range of motion, and pain on ankle dorsiflexion and inversion. ISSN (Print): AwaitedISSN (Online): 2582-7332, © 2020 Published by Scientific Scholar on behalf of Journal of Arthroscopic Surgery and Sports Medicine, Department of Arthroscopy & Foot and Ankle, Ganga Medical Centre and Hospital Pvt. Foot Ankle Int. USA.gov. COVID-19 is an emerging, rapidly evolving situation. They are most commonly … Please enable it to take advantage of the complete set of features! Ferkel’s grading is the most commonly employed grading system on arthroscopy. A non-shoulder-type lesion is defined as a chondral defect that has surrounding articular cartilage (a contained cartilage defect), whereas a shoulder-type lesion does not have a peripheral cartilage border on one side with the loss of the medial or lateral articular buttress (uncontained defect). After a longer follow-up, some patients showed that the beneficial results were not maintained, indicating the deterioration of the … Among the OLT, up to 94% of the lateral lesions are said to be secondary to trauma while only 62% of medial lesions are post-traumatic. If you continue to use this site we will assume that you are happy with it. Surgical treatment is indicated after a failed conservative trial, larger lesion and can be broadly split into cartilage repair, replacement, and regenerative strategies. Rationale of conservative treatment is to offload the affected area for resolution of bone marrow edema and to facilitate healing of the detached cartilage. [8,9] There have been numerous changes to the terminology of these lesions since the first description, however, the term “osteochondral lesions of the talus” (OLT) is generally preferred. [10], Most OLT are secondary to trauma, with up to 50% of ankle sprains resulting in some grade of cartilage injury. Once the piece has broken off, surgery is almost always necessary. [20] Either fixation or excision is recommended for acutely displaced lesions while conservative treatment is the initial treatment indicated for all acute undisplaced lesions and other symptomatic OLT presenting late. Foot Ankle Spec. Particulated nature gives mobility to the chondrocytes to escape from the minced pieces and form a hyaline cartilage like matrix in the area of the defect. complications: a systematic review. [54] to detect the most effective treatment for OLT concluded that none of the interventions were clinically superior over another. In both studies magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was performed prior to open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). This tissue is mechanically inferior, but the results of the procedure in the short term are generally good with smaller lesion (<1.5 cm 2) [16, 22]. [28], The prognostic factors that determine the success of microfracture are listed in [Table 3]. Recovery and surgery for an OCD lesion of the knee. [23] A level-II randomized study conducted by Mei-Dan et al. [] Although majority may … Electronic databases from January 1966 to December 2006 were systematically screened. One randomized clinical trial was identified. Operative treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus. They highlighted the heterogeneity of the data and suggested the need for high-quality prospective randomized studies using validated outcome measures for clarity regarding the effective modalities of treatment for OLT.[50]. These lesions pose a diagnostic challenge to the attending clinician due to lack of specific clinical signs and lack in consensus regarding treatment makes the management aspect controversial. A full diagnostic arthroscopy is performed, and then attention is turned to the osteochondral defect. My question is: For a young man with 13, with the condition that the correct option and including microfracture. described the natural history of OLT in 43 patients who opted for conservative treatment with a minimum follow-up of 2 years. Osteochondral allograft reconstruction (OCA) is highly cost-effective [30, 31] but the procedure is limited by the scarcity of fresh grafts and in some countries use is restricted by law [11, 46]. Awareness of current national guidelines is important in the appropriate consenting of patients undergoing surgery. [19] Commonly used classifications are summarized in [Table 1]. Osteochondral Allograft transplantation for knee lesions after failure of cartilage repair surgery. Limited, Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu, Department of Orthopedics and Spine surgery. in their review highlighted the paucity of long-term high-level studies regarding usage of BMAC in OLT with most evidence coming mainly from retrospective studies. The aim of this study was to summarize all eligible studies to compare the effectiveness of treatment strategies for osteochondral defects (OCD) of the talus. Microfractures, are often considered the first-line surgical treatment option due to the low costs and ease of the technique ( 34 - 38 ), while ACI is rather reserved as a salvage procedure ( 39 - 41 , 45 ). There was a significantly lower cost for return to play in athletes after OAT versus microfracture at 1 year ($11,428 vs $16,953, respectively), 3 years ($12,856 vs $38,000, respectively), and 10 years ($32,141 vs $60,799, respectively). The talus is the bottom bone of the ankle joint. [2,39] Flynn et al. in their review of 82 patients reported increase in arthrosis by one grade radiologically though none of the patients had Grade IV arthritis at a minimum follow-up of 5 years.
