Arthroscopic Debridement and Fixation of Osteochondritis Dissecans Lesions of the Medial Femoral Condyle.
Arthrosc Tech
October 2024
From the Department or Orthopedic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Minnesota, U.S.A.
Article Synopsis
- Traditional treatment for unstable osteochondritis dissecans lesions in the medial femoral condyle involves open surgery with direct visualization.
- This study introduces an arthroscopic method for treating these lesions which includes elevation, cleaning, and fixation without a large incision.
- The new technique preserves surrounding soft tissues and enhances recovery by utilizing specialized instruments for a less invasive approach.
A Hemi--Hamate Osteochondral Graft: A Modified Hemi-Hamate Technique for a Unicondylar Defect.
J Hand Surg Glob Online
March 2024
Clinical Orthopedics, Department of Clinical and Molecular Science, Polytechnic University of Marche, Ancona, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- * Treatment involves achieving a proper joint alignment and stability, but complete loss of bone can complicate this process, leading to joint flexion issues and finger overlap.
- * A new solution called the hemi-hamate osteochondral graft, a modified form of traditional treatment, is introduced for reconstructing severe bone loss at the articular surface, focusing on restoring finger function.
Treatment of knee cartilage lesions in 2024: From hyaluronic acid to regenerative medicine.
J Exp Orthop

Cartilage Research Unit, Team Orthopedic Research Region Halland-TOR, Region Halland Orthopaedics, Varberg Hospital University of Gothenburg Varberg Sweden.
Abstract: Intact articular cartilage plays a vital role in joint homeostasis. Local cartilage repairs, where defects in the cartilage matrix are filled in and sealed to congruity, are therefore important treatments to restore a joint equilibrium. The base for all cartilage repairs is the cells; either chondrocytes or chondrogeneic cells from bone, synovia and fat tissue.

R. China.
Tissue engineering and electrotherapy are two promising methods to promote tissue repair. However, their integration remains an underexplored area, because their requirements on devices are usually distinct. Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have shown great potential to develop self-powered devices.

The unique physical demands of tactical athletes put immense stress on the knee joint, making these individuals susceptible to injury. In order to ensure operational readiness, management options must restore and preserve the native architecture and minimize downtime, while optimizing functionality. Osteochondral lesions (OCL) of the knee have long been acknowledged as significant sources of knee pain and functional deficits.
