TLDR
The present report evaluates the clinical outcome of 36 patients followed for two to seven years after a mosaic autogenous osteochondral transplantation from a non or less weight bearing portion of the knee to the ipsilateral talus, which supports the premise of lasting relief of symptoms and prevention of ankle arthrosis.
Abstract
An osteochondral defect (OCD) is known as a symptomatic lesion causing pain, recurrent synovitis, and altered joint mechanics most commonly in a weightbearing joint. Loose bodies may develop, which...

Osteoarticular grafts in the treatment of OCD of the talus: mosaicplasty versus autologous chondrocyte transplantation

TL;DR: ACT is the most recent technique and, in the authors' opinion, is preferable in that it is less invasive at the donor site and gives better histologic results because of the reconstruction of a continuous cartilage sheath compared with that achieved by mosaicplasty.

Indications and limitations of osteochondral autologous transplantation in osteochondritis dissecans of the talus

TL;DR: Osteochondral autologous transplantation in OD of the talus is a safe procedure with good clinical results and indication for OAT in older patients should be carefully considered, as advanced age is associated with higher donor-site morbidity.

Primary stability of osteochondral grafts used in mosaicplasty

TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify the effect of graft diameter and dilation length on the primary stability of single osteochondral grafts against compression in an in vitro biomechanical animal model.

Delayed gadolinium-enhanced MRI of cartilage of the ankle joint: results after autologous matrix-induced chondrogenesis (AMIC)-aided reconstruction of osteochondral lesions of the talus.

TL;DR: It is suggested that repair cartilage resulting from AMIC-aided repair of osteochondral lesions of the talus has a significantly lower glycosaminoglycan (GAG) content than normal hyaline cartilage, but can be regarded as having hyaline-like properties.

Double-Plug Autologous Osteochondral Transplantation Shows Equal Functional Outcomes Compared With Single-Plug Procedures in Lesions of the Talar Dome: A Minimum 5-Year Clinical Follow-up.

TL;DR: The dp-Aot procedure is as effective as sp-AOT in treating larger OCLs of the talar dome in the intermediate term, with similar high postoperative clinical and radiological outcomes.

Osteochondral lesions of the talus.

TL;DR: A retrospective study of ankles in twenty-nine patients with osteochondral lesions found that lateral lesions were associated with inversion or inversion-dorsiflexion trauma, were morphologically shallow, and were more likely to become displaced in the joint and to have persistent symptoms.

Arthroscopic autogenous osteochondral mosaicplasty for the treatment of femoral condylar articular defects. A preliminary report.

TL;DR: The results of 10 control arthroscopies and the histological evaluations of 6 biopsies demonstrated the hyalinelike cartilage surface at the recipient area and the fibrocartilage formation at the surface of the donor holes.

Mosaicplasty for the treatment of articular cartilage defects: application in clinical practice.

TL;DR: A one-step operative technique for the treatment of circumscript cartilage defects of weight-bearing surfaces of the knee and using the modified Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) knee scoring system, 91% of the patients achieved a good or excellent result.

Osteochondritis dissecans of the talus (transchondral fractures of the talus): review of the literature and new surgical approach for medial dome lesions.

TL;DR: A retrospective study of 22 ankles in 22 patients with osteochondral talar dome lesions between 1975 and 1983 has indicated that surgical treatment yields superior results to conservative therapy.

Arthroscopic treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus.

TL;DR: In this article, a review of 65 patients who had undergone arthroscopic treatment for osteochondral lesions of the talus was carried out for a mean of 3.5 years.
