Category:AnkleIntroduction/Purpose:The aim of the study was to assess the relationship between symptomatic osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs) and age, Body Mass Index (BMI), quality of life (QOL), size and anatomic location.Methods:Fifty-two patients with chronic OLTs were analyzed including BMI, Visual Analgoue Scale (VAS), American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), Short-Form Healt Survey (SF-12 divided into Mental (MCS) and Physical (PCS) score) and the 12-Item General Health Questionnaire (GHQ-12). Every patient underwent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) examinations. We carried out a sub-analysis by dividing the talus into 6 areas, 3 vertical (medial, central and lateral group) and 3 horizontal (anterior, middle and posterior group).Results:There were 31 (60%) male and 21 (40%) female patients. Mean MCS and PCS resulted respectively 43.9 and 35.2. OLTs were located as follows: medial 20 (38.50%); central 13 (24.0%); and lateral 19 (36.50%); anterior 24 (4...
