ABSTRACT Osteochondral lesions of the talar dome are well described. To our knowledge, there are no published reports of osteochondral lesion of the talar head. We report the case of a 16-year-old girl who presented with a nontraumatic osteochondral lesion of talar head, which was treated with arthroscopic debridement and bone marrow stimulation. At 6-month follow-up, the patient was symptom free and the radiograph showed signs of healing of the lesion. How to cite this article Mangwani J, Patel A, Al-Jundi W, Askari A, Moore D.

Ankle injuries can lead to early osteoarthrosis when diagnosis is delayed. The clinical presentation of an osteochondral lesion of the talar dome is often difficult to diagnose in the initial setup of an ankle sprain or fracture. Once the lesion is adequately imaged and staged, open or arthroscopic treatment can be initiated. We discuss the arthroscopic treatment of a posteromedial talar dome lesion in this case report. Transmalleolar drilling was performed to treat an osteochondral lesion of the talar dome in a 24-year-old female. Her ankle evolved toward a severe clinical and radiologic condition in which a combined talar and tibial (kissing) lesion was seen during her follow-up. Therefore, we recommend the use of retrograde drilling or arthroscopic microfracture with minimal iatrogenic risk, instead of transmalleolar drilling, as the treatment of choice in these specific osteochondral lesion of the talar dome cases.

AbstractThe aim of the present study was to present clinical and radiological outcome of a hip fracture-dislocation of the femoral head treated with biomimetic osteochondral scaffold.An 18-year-old male was admitted to the hospital after a motorcycle-accident. He presented with an obturator hip dislocation with a type IVA femoral head fracture according to Brumback classification system. The patient underwent surgery 5 days after accident. The largest osteochondral fragment was reduced and stabilized with 2 screws, and the small fragments were removed. The residual osteochondral area was replaced by a biomimetic nanostructured osteochondral scaffold. At 1-year follow-up the patient did not complain of hip pain and could walk without limp. At 2-year follow-up he was able to run with no pain and he returned to practice sports. Repeated radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging studies of the hip showed no signs of osteoarthritis or evidence of avascular necrosis. A hyaline-like signal on the surface of the scaffold was observed with restoration of the articular surface and progressive decrease of the subchondral edema.The results of the present study showed that the biomimetic nanostructured osteochondral scaffold could be a promising and safe option for the treatment of traumatic osteochondral lesions of the femoral head.Study Design: Case report.

Traumatic ankle conditions can lead to long-term sequelae if a pathologic process is misdiagnosed. The clinical presentation of an osteochondral lesion of the talar dome requires the clinician to have a high index of suspicion, and advanced imaging is often necessary to make the final diagnosis. Treatment should be initiated once the lesion is appropriately staged by radiologic or magnetic resonance imaging. We discuss the use of arthroscopy-assisted retrograde drilling of the medial talar dome that spares the articular cartilage within the talotibial articulation.

ABSTRAKPenyakit Osteochondral Lesion of the Talus (OLT) adalah kelainan pada tulang talus di lapisan subchondral yang berupa lesi osteochondral pada talar dome dengan konsekuensi abnormalitas pada tulang rawan sendi talar. Pasien biasanya datang berobat ke tenaga kesehatan dengan keluhan yang tidak spesifik dan dengan gejala seperti nyeri pada pergelangan kaki, bengkak serta berkurangnya berkurangnya ruang gerak. Penegakan diagnosis bisa dilakukan dengan anamnesis, pemeriksaan fisik dan pemeriksaan penunjang sederhana seperti foto X-ray maupun pemeriksaan penunjang canggih seperti CT-Scan dan MRI. Tatalaksana OLT bervariasi. Tatalaksana pada OLT tergantung dari tahapan lesi, kronisitasnya, dan keluhan simtomatis yang menyertainya. Pasien dengan keluhan simtomatis yang akut dan non-displaced sering diberikan terapi nonoperatif biasanya berupa terapi konservatif dengan imobilisasi. Lesi yang tidak berhasil atau tidak menunjukkan perbaikan dalam keluhan simtomatisnya setelah 3 sampai 6 bulan, serta lesi dengan displacement dapat direncanakan untuk terapi operatif. Ada beberapa macam tehnik operatif yang dapat dilakukan untuk menyembuhkan OLT. Tehnik operatif ini dapat dikategorikan menjadi cartilage repair, cartilage regeneration dan cartilage replacement techniques.Kata kunci: osteochondral lesion of the talus, patofisiologi, tatalaksanaABSTRACTOsteochondral Lesion of the Talus (OLT) is an abnormality in the talus bone in the subchondral layer in the form of osteochondral lesions in the talar dome with consequent abnormalities in the talar joint cartilage. Patients usually come to a health care provider with nonspecific complaints and with symptoms such as pain in the ankles, swelling and reduced space for movement. The diagnosis can be made with a history, physical examination and simple investigations such as X-rays and sophisticated investigations such as CT-Scan and MRI. The management of OLT varies. The management of OLT depends on the stage of the lesion, its chronicity, and the accompanying symptomatic complaints. Patients with acute and non-displaced symptomatic complaints are often given nonoperative therapy usually in the form of conservative therapy with immobilization. Lesions that are unsuccessful or show no improvement in symptomatic complaints after 3 to 6 months, and lesions with displacement can be planned for operative therapy. There are several types of operative techniques that can be done to cure OLT. These operative techniques can be categorized into cartilage repair, cartilage regeneration and cartilage replacement techniques. Keywords: osteochondral lesion of the talus, patophysiology, treatment
