Background:traumatic ankle joint osteochondral lesions and defects (OHLD) is frequent cause of OA, chronic pain and loss of joint function; results of traditional treatment strategy are often unsatisfyingObjectives:to develop treatment algorithm for OHLD based on evaluation of previously determined main prognostic factors.Methods:the analysis of long-term (36 ± 4.5 months) treatment results of 239 patients after traumatic ankle joint OHLD revealed the following factors with the greatest predictive value (defined by PC – prognostic coefficient) for good result of treatment (defined as AOFAS function score 75-100 points): age < 40 years (PC = 8.5); size of OHLD ≤ 1.0 cm2; volume ≤ 1.5 cm3(PC = 8.0); osteoarthritis stage ≤ II (PC = 7.2). Based on these factors, a step-by-step, discrete and alternative algorithm for the choice of treatment tactics was created. The algorithm includes use of arthroscopic or open debridement, abrasive chondroplasty, bone marrow regeneration stimulation (microfracturing or tunneling), mosaic osteochondroplasty, arthroplasty or arthrodesis, the use of cellular regenerative technologies (bone marrow cells, platelet riched plasma), and others. Patients of older age with advanced OA need complex, step up approach, surgical treatment combined with regenerative cell technologies. The effectiveness of the differentiated approach to treatment was studied in 72 patients with OHLD (main group) in comparing to 72 patients in whom traditional treatment approaches were used, based on the stage of injury according to the Berndt & Hardy classification (comparison group).Results:compared to the traditional approach, the developed algorithm and treatment system allowed to half terms of hospitalization, to reduce the intensity of pain syndrome (by NRS) and increase the functional activity (by AOFAS) by 25%. In 3 years after trauma good/excellent results of treatment demonstrated 86% patients of main group and 32,2% of patients from comparing group (p<0,05).Conclusion:implementation of the developed treatment algorithm increases the number of good and excellent long-term results by 2.6 times and reduces the number of complications and unsatisfactory results by 4.9 times.Disclosure of Interests:None declared

AbstractIntroductionPercutaneous balloon valvuloplasty is the primary treatment for critical pulmonary valve stenosis in neonates. Thus far, a few studies have reported long-term results of this technique in neonatal critical pulmonary valve stenosis.MethodsWe carried out a retrospective study of all consecutive newborns with critical pulmonary valve stenosis subjected to percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty at a single centre, between 1994 and 2014, to assess its immediate and long-term safety and efficacy.ResultsA total of 24 neonates presented with critical pulmonary valve stenosis. The mean diameter of the pulmonary annulus was 7 mm (±1.19); 33.3% had a dysplastic pulmonary valve, and 92% were started on prostaglandin E1 treatment. Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty was performed at a mean age of 4.0±4.3 days using, on average, a balloon-to-pulmonary annulus ratio of 1.18 mm (with a range from 0.9 to 1.43). Immediate success was achieved in 22/24 patients (92%) with a reduction in the pulmonary transvalvular peak gradient (p<0.05) and in the right ventricle/systemic pressure ratio (p<0.05). There was one death (4%) 6 days after the procedure, and 29.2% of them had transient rhythm complications. For a mean follow-up time of 8.4 years, the re-intervention rate was 42.9%. In total, 14 re-interventions were performed in nine neonates, including surgery in six. Freedom from re-intervention was 50% at 8 years and 43% at 10 and 15 years.ConclusionThis series, to the best of our knowledge, has had the longest follow-up of neonates with critical pulmonary valve stenosis. Percutaneous balloon valvuloplasty is a safe and effective treatment, and in our study 75% of the patients were exclusively treated using this technique.
