【 摘 要 】

Category:ArthroscopyIntroduction/Purpose:Subchondroplasty® is a relatively new technique used to treat multiple conditions associated with bone marrow edema. Asymptomatic talus osteochondral defects (OCD) typically present with no bone marrow edema on MRI. Therefore the aim of this retrospective study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of an arthroscopic-percutaneous procedure for the treatment of painful OCDs using subchondral highly porous injectable calcium phosphate – to address the marrow edema - and intra-articular bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) – to address joint inflammation.Methods:From September 2016 to November 2016 9 consecutive patients with an isolated symptomatic osteochondral defect were included in the study. The Foot and Ankle Orthopaedic Score (FAOS) and the visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain were administered preoperatively and at the 1 year postoperative mark. At 52 weeks patients were asked if they would have the procedure again.The procedure was performed by debrid...
