Abstract:This article describes a technique for arthroscopic fixation of an osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesion of the medial talar dome with headless compression screws. This technique involves creation of a medial transmalleolar portal using a guide and drill. The medial transmalleolar portal grants perpendicular access for screw fixation of OCD lesions in addition to the potential for osteochondral autograft transplantation (OAT). Advantages include access to the medial talar dome without performing a medial mall… Show more
