Arthroscopic treatment of osteochondral lesions of talus
Abstract
10 patients aged 22 to 44 with symptomatic osteochondrallesions of the talus underwent arthroscopic examination and treatment. 4 patients had recent post- traumatic lesion with fractures located on the anterolateral aspect of the talar dome with free loose fragment. Arthroscopic treatment consisted of the removal of the osteochondral fragment and of the debridement and curettage of the talus. 6 patients had chronic lesions with necrosis on the postero- medial aspect of the dome. These were treated by debridement of the osteochondrallesion and curretage. The antero- medial or the antero- lateral approach to the ankle was used. ln posterior lesions, the posterior aspect of the dome of the talus was reached by distracting the ankle and administering plant an flexion of the foot. Follow up ranged from 1O months to 2 years. The 2 patients with recent posttraumatic fracture treated by removal of the loose fragment showed excellent results with full ankle function 15 days after the arthroscopy and without any pain or swelling. The results of the cases with postero- medial osteonecrosis wer excellent. Only 1 was poor. This study suggests that arthroscopic treatment of the osteochondrallesions of the talus can yield the same results as surgical techniques with minimal morbidity, brief hospitalisation and rapid functional recovery.
