Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the curative effect and related factors of the treatment for the osteochondral lesion of talus (OLT) by the osteochondral autografts harvested from medial femoral condyle of the ipsilateral knee.Methods The data of 15 OLT patients was retrospectively analyzed who received the operation during July 2009 to November 2012.There were 8 males,and 7 females,with an average age of 49.6±17.2 years (range,19-73 years).International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm score were used to evaluate the knee function preoperatively and postoperatively respectively.The ankle functions and pain were assessed according to American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle and hind-foot score and visual analogue scale (VAS) preoperatively and postoperatively respectively.Correlations between age or follow-up duration and all the score increments were further analyzed by Spearman rank correlation test.Results Twelve patients complete the follow up,with an average duration of 21.8±10.4 months.The average IKDC,Lysholm,AOFAS,and VAS were 90.91±6.44,95.33±8.00,63.58±18.50,and 7.25±1.54 respectively before operation,and 85.63±11.89,90.75±11.83,90.33±4.98,2.17±1.19 respectively after operation.Correlation coefficients of age between AOFAS,Lysholm,and IKDC score increments were -0.74,-0.63,and-0.76,respectively.There were 4 cases which received excellent effect (33％),5 cases (42％) good and 3 (25％) fair.Conclusion The ankle joint function of patients with OLT recovered well by treated with osteochondral autografts harvested from medial femoral condyle of the ipsilateral knee operation.A correlation was found between patients' age and postoperative functional recovery of ankle and knee joint.
