“…7,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Classically, conservative treatment forgrades I-II 6 and removal of the fragment and local curettage for grades III-IV 13,14 has been indicated. However, Kristensen et al 8 and Kelbérine et al 7 have recently introduced arthroscopic osteosynthesis as a treatment for osteochondral lesions of the anterior aspect of the talar dome, with satisfactory functional results.…”

“…However, the current literature does not provide definitive criteria for conservative treatment, which can be initiated in acute, subacute, and chronic injury, up to one year after the onset of injury [ 32 , 39 ]. The accepted contraindication of non-operative treatment is a displaced intra-articular osteochondral fragment [ 40 ].…”

Osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT) is a common condition associated with ankle injury that brings challenges in the diagnosis and treatment. Symptoms related to this condition are nonspecific including pain, swelling, stiffness, and mechanical symptoms of locking and catching. While the natural history of the OLTs is not well understood, surgical treatment is often required especially in chronic cases and acute cases with displaced articular fragments. Arthroscopic treatment of the OLTs aims to restore ankle joint function and pain relief by the removal of the chondral or osteochondral fragment, debridement and stabilization of cartilage rim and subchondral bone, and stimulate healing of the bone and damaged cartilage. In patients with a large lesion or after a failure of previous bone marrow stimulation, biologic restoration techniques including the use of particulate juvenile cartilage techniques, autogenous chondrocyte implantation, and osteochondral autograft or allograft transplantation may have role. This article summarizes the contemporary concepts in the clinical evaluation and treatment of OLTs with particular emphasis on surgical strategies.

“…They are used for internal fixation of fractures of the malleolus [6,7,11,15,19,21,24,35,39], of the calcaneus [27], of the tibial head [21,25,40), of the talus [21,22,29], instabilities of the glenohumeral joint [23,44], lateral clavicle fractures [21], acromio-clavicular instabilities [21], radial head fractures [21,40], olecranon fractures [21,37,40] fractures [21,40], refixation of flake fractures of the femur, humerus and patella [21,35], humeral condyles [40], patella and distal femur [40] and anterior spondylodesis in cervical interbody fusion by plates and screws [10]. Most of these bioresorbable devices are made of polyglycolid acid (PGA) [21,29,40] or polylactid acid (PLA) [10,11,15,23,27,35,37,40,44] or polydioxanon (PDS) [21].

Material and Method: Bioresorbable and biostable interference screws in operative reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures were compared concerning safety and efficacy. The randomized prospective clinical study consisted of 2 groups with 15 patients each, admitted at our center with acute (< 8 weeks) traumatic loss of ACL-stability. The ACLreconstruction was performed in open technique using a bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft and fixation with bioresorbable (study group) or titanium (control group) interference screws. Results: Employing a special questionnaire patients' satisfaction was recorded. Functional results were scored using clinical examination and the Lachman test under sonographic control. Foreign-body reactions against the implants were assessed by clinical examinations and on radiographs. The follow-up of all patients was at least for 2 years. Ligament stability of the knee joint, operative and postoperative complication rate did not significantly differ between the two groups. 14 patients of the study group and 13 patients of the control group were completely satisfied. One patient of the study group was dissatisfied because of developing an infection. Conclusion:The results using bioresorbable interference screws in ACL-reconstruction are identic to those employing standard titanium implants. Differences in rates of operative and postoperative complications were not statistically significant. The advantages of the bioresorbable implants include the absence of urgent implant removal in case of secondary ACL-reconstruction procedures and undisturbed MRI and CT scans postoperatively.
