Treatment strategies for osteochondral lesions of the talus: A review of the recent evidence

BackgroundThere has been no consensus regarding the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus, there has been many attempts to formulate a treatment pathway, with multiple proposed modalities and adjuncts used.ObjectivesThe aim of this paper was to investigate the evidence published in the recent history, identify the relevant papers, review and summarize the findings, to help clarify the available operative treatment options and their respective efficacies based on the level of evidence provided.Study design & methodsA literature search through electronic databases MEDLINE and EMBASE was done, these databases were screened for publications and papers form June 2004 to June 2019. Key words were utilised in the search ‘talus, talar, tibia, cartilage, osteochondral, ankle, osteochondritis dissecans, articular cartilage’. Studies on adults aged 18–60 years were included. Exclusion criteria were studies with less than 10 patients, or no clear outcome was recorded. Papers were reviewed by the authors and data extracted as per a pre-defined proforma.ResultsFollowing screening, 28 published articles were included and reviewed. Of these publications 5 were level I, 7 level II, 4 level III and 12 level IV. The total number of patients was 1061 patients. Treatment modalities included arthroscopic microfracture, drilling, hyaluronic acid injection, platelet rich plasma, osteochondral autologous transplantation (OAT), vascularised free bone graft among others. The most common functional measures used to assess efficacy were the Visual analogue scale (VAS) and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle (AOFAS) score. Follow up ranged from 26 weeks upto 4 years.ConclusionsDespite the abundance of treatment options, high level evidence (level I) remains limited and does not conclude a definitive treatment modality as superior to others. Further research, in the form highly organised randomised clinical trials, is needed to help improve the efficacy and develop new treatment modalities in the future.     

YouTube provides low-quality videos about talus osteochondral lesions and their arthroscopic treatment

BackgroundMedical professionals and patients commonly use the YouTubeTM platform in their research on health information. The quality of videos about talus osteochondral defect (OCD) and arthroscopic surgery has not been evaluated previously. The aim of this study was to interpret the quality and sufficiency of YouTubeTM videos about talus OCD and arthroscopic surgery.MethodsThe present study is a quality control study of videos on OCD and their arthroscopic treatment. The videos were interpreted in terms of Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), DISCERN (Quality Criteria for Consumer Health Information), The Global Quality Score (GQS) and Talus OCD - Specific Score (TOCDSS) by two blinded observers to assess the accuracy of these methods.ResultsInter-observer agreement was "very high" for JAMA, DISCERN, and TOCDSS, while "high" for GQS. There was a statistical relationship and a positive correlation between the scoring systems.ConclusionThe content and quality of YouTubeTM videos about talus OCD and arthroscopic treatment are insufficient.     

One step treatment of talus osteochondral lesions with microfracture and cell free hyaluronic acid based scaffold combination

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of microfracture and cell free hyaluronic acid (HA) based scaffold combination in the treatment of talus osteochondral defects (OCD).MethodsThis study retrospectively evaluated the clinical results of the 20 patients (14 males and 6 females, mean age at the time of surgery: 32.9 years (range: 16–52 years)) who were treated with MFx and cell-free HA-based scaffold combination for talus OCD smaller than 1.5 cm² and deeper than 7 mm. Results were evaluated with AOFAS and VAS scores. Also, patients' satisfaction was questioned.ResultsPatients were evaluated after an average follow-up of 20.3 months. Intraoperative measurements showed that mean depth of the lesions were 10.4 ± 1.9 mm after debridement. The mean preoperative AOFAS score was 57.45 ± 9.37, which increased to 92.45 ± 8.4 postoperatively (p < 0.05). VAS score was improved from 7.05 ± 2.45 to 1.65 ± 2.20 postoperatively (p < 0.05).ConclusionMFx and cell-free HA-based scaffold combination appear to be a safe and efficient technique that provide good clinical outcomes for lesions deeper than 7 mm.Level of evidenceLevel IV, Therapeutic Study.     

Arthroscopic treatment of ankle osteochondral lesions

Arthroscopic treatment of osteochondral lesions (OCLs) of the ankle is a popular first-line surgical option after conservative therapy has failed. MRI is the preferred imaging modality to evaluate OCLs and aid in surgical planning. Associated soft tissue pathology must be appreciated and addressed surgically, because associated synovitis and soft tissue impingement often contribute to symptoms. The diverse treatment modalities available via arthroscopy offer simplistic and straightforward solutions for biologically and mechanically complicated pathology. Marrow-stimulating techniques, particularly microfracture, have shown good to excellent results in most patients with small (<15 mm) acute lesions, and have a low complication rate.     

Osteochondral autograft transfer (mosaicplasty) for treatment of patients with osteochondral lesions of talus

Purpose:Osteochondral lesion of talus(OLT)is one of the common causes of ankle pain.This disorder is common in young athletes after ankle injury.There are various therapeutic options.One of the options is mosaic plasticizer.The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of mosaicplasty on improvement of symptoms of patients with osteochondral lesions of talus.Methods:Nineteen patients with osteochondral lesions of talus participated in this study,who were treated with mosaicplasty.Before and after treatment,pain(visual analogue scale),function(American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society),range of motion and radiographic signs were evaluated.Results:The results of this study showed that mosaicplasty could significantly reduce pain,increase function and improve radiographic symptoms.The range of motion increased after treatment,which was not significant.Conclusion:We can confirm the effect of mosaicplasty on the improvement of patients with osteochondral lesions of the ankle,suggesting it as a treatment option.     

No mid-term difference in mosaicplasty in previously treated versus previously untreated patients with osteochondral lesions of the talus

Introduction Osteochondral transplantations, albeit technically challenging, appear promising not only in knee joint lesions, but also in the treatment of talus lesions. We hypothesized that in patients suffering osteochondral lesions of the talus, favorable outcomes are obtained in patients undergoing primary mosaicplasty as compared to patients undergoing secondary mosaicplasty. Materials and methods Over a 3-year period (1998–2001), 14 patients (six male, eight female, median age 22 years) were treated with an autologous osteochondral transplantation of the talus. Eight patients were previously untreated (group I). Six patients had previous ankle procedures, such as microfracturing (group II). The median follow-up was 24 months and 100% complete at 12 months. The functional outcome was evaluated at least at 6 weeks, 12 weeks, and 1 year after surgery using pain on a visual analog scale (VAS) and sports activity was recorded at 1 year after surgery. In ten patients, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the ankle was performed at 1 year after surgery (group I/II: 7/3). Results Overall ankle pain was decreased from 6.9 ± 2.1 to 4.0 ± 2.8 postoperatively. The mean knee pain for the donor knee was 2.6 ± 2.4. We found no significant difference between the primary mosaicplasty group and the secondary mosaicplasty group with regard to pain. MRI scans of ten patients showed a complete incorporation of the osteochondral cylinders at 1 year after surgery. Conclusion Favorable outcomes were obtained in patients undergoing primary mosaicplasty as compared to patients undergoing secondary mosaicplasty. We found no significant difference among patients with previous ankle surgery in contrast to those without, with a median 24-months follow-up.     

Outcomes of bone marrow aspirate concentrate and matrix-induced chondrogenesis (BMIC) for treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus

BackgroundTo analyze the outcomes of Bone marrow aspirate concentrate and Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis (BMIC) in Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus (OLTs).MethodsPatients with OLTs treated with BMIC from June 2013 to July 2020 were included. Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), Foot Function Index (FFI), and Foot Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) before treatment and at last follow-up were subjected to analysis.ResultsForty-five patients were included and mean follow-up was 39.1 months (range, 13–97 months). Mean lesion size and depth were 180.7 ± 110.4 mm² and 9.6 ± 3.7 mm, respectively. BMIC was performed without malleolar osteotomy in 36 patients (80%) and bone graft was performed in 42 (93.3%). VAS, FFI, and FAOS improved significantly. No complication occurred and no revision was required.ConclusionsThe BMIC procedure is feasible and should be considered a viable treatment option for OLTs associated with large subchondral bone defects.     

Mid-term results after treatment of complex talus osteochondral defects with HemiCAP implantation

BackgroundHemiCAP for complex osteochondral defects (OCDs) in talus has been on the market since 2008. Few follow-up studies exist. Patients with complex OCDs were followed for up to 81 months.Methods31 consecutive patients were assessed preoperatively and at final follow-up, mean 50 months. All patients were treated with the HemiCAP®, Arthrosurface Inc., USA inlay. Inclusion criteria were complex OCDs of the medial or lateral talus dome.ResultsAll outcome measures i.e. AOFAS, FAOS and NRS improved significantly.71.8 % of the cohort were employed preoperatively.At final follow up 87.5% were employed. No revisions of the HemiCAP was performed, but 41,9% had supplementary surgery. 1 patient had a superficial infection otherwise no complications were found. Preoperative and final follow-up x-rays were analysed.ConclusionsMid-term results after HemiCAP talus are good. Patient information and selection is mandatory due to the high numbers of additional surgeries following the HemiCap implantation.
