The subchondral bone in articular cartilage repair: current problems in the surgical management

Abstract: As the understanding of interactions between articular cartilage and subchondral bone continues to evolve, increased attention is being directed at treatment options for the entire osteochondral unit, rather than focusing on the articular surface only. It is becoming apparent that without support from an intact subchondral bed, any treatment of the surface chondral lesion is likely to fail. This article reviews issues affecting the entire osteochondral unit, such as subchondral changes after marrow-stimulation… Show more

“…There are five clinically available treatment options for osteochondral restoration. These include: 1) osteochondral autograft, 2) osteochondral allograft, 3) impaction bone grafting, 4) Autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) "Sandwich Technique", and 5) biphasic scaf folds [16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25][26] . These techniques, along with their strengths and limitations, are summarized in Table 1.…”

“…Currently, the most commonly utilized restorative option with the most data is osteochondral allograft, which combines viable donor subchondral bone and overlying hyaline articular cartilage [17,18] . This may be performed utilizing a shell or dowel technique incorporating differing amounts of subchondral bone, and can be titrated to the specific clinical situation and needs [18,24] .…”

“…The last article of this series delves into specific questions of contemporary approaches to common surgical problems affecting the subchondral bone [1]. Issues that continue to complicate the current treatments are reviewed, such as the thickening of the subchondral plate and formation of intralesional osteophytes observed after marrow stimulation techniques, or the large osteochondral defects resulting from removal of focal knee resurfacing implants.…”
