AI Article Synopsis
- Focal chondral lesions can cause chronic wrist pain, and the authors introduced a new treatment using arthroscopic transplantation of osteochondral autografts from the femur to the wrist.
- In a study of 4 patients, grafts were successfully incorporated within 3 to 4 months post-surgery and all patients reported improved wrist function and no pain on average 70.5 months later.
- Follow-up examinations showed preserved cartilage in 3 patients, high levels of patient satisfaction, and no complications from the procedure.
Article Abstract
Focal chondral lesions are a common cause of chronic wrist pain, with no ideal treatment. The authors developed arthroscopic transplantation of osteochondral autograft from lateral femoral condyle to distal radius with satisfactory outcome in 4 consecutive patients between December 2006 and December 2010. In all cases, graft incorporation was completed by 3 months to 4 months postoperation. All patients showed improvement in wrist function with no pain at follow-up at an average of 70.5 months (range 24-116 months). Second-look arthroscopy in 3 patients confirmed the preservation of normal articular cartilage. Patient satisfaction was high with no complications.

The use of autologous chondrocyte transplantation for the treatment of osteoarthritis: a systematic review of clinical trials.
Cell Tissue Bank
December 2024
Division of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, Philadelphia, PA, USA.
Tissue engineering and cartilage transplantation constitute an evolving field in the treatment of osteoarthritis, with therapeutic and clinical promise shown in autologous chondrocyte implantation. The aim of this systematic review is to explore current clinical trials that utilized autologous chondrocyte transplantation (ACT) and assess its efficacy in the treatment of osteoarthritis. PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, and Google-Scholar (pages 1-20) were searched up until February 2023.

Aims: This study presents clinical outcomes, functional results, and return to sports after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using quadruple hamstring tendon autograft or peroneus longus tendon autograft in a randomized controlled trial.
Patients And Methods: Between February 2018 and July 2019, patients who underwent ACL reconstruction were randomly assigned to two groups: hamstring and peroneus longus. Patient related outcome measurements and pain intensity were evaluated using IKDC, Lysholm, and visual analog scores at 3 and 6 months, 1, 2, and 5 years after the surgery.
All Arthroscopic Osteochondral Autograft Transplantation for Medial Talar Dome Lesions Talus With Burring of the Anterior Lip of the Distal Tibia.

Orthopaedic Department, Faculty of Medicine in Assiut, Al-Azhar University, Cairo, Egypt.
Osteochondral lesions of the talus are chondral lesions affecting the subchondral bone mostly due to acute ankle trauma, including either sprains or fractures. After failure of conservative treatment, operative treatment is necessary, with different surgical techniques described in the literature. We describe a single-step osteochondral autograft transfer to access the medial talar dome lesion that avoids the need for a medial malleolar osteotomy and therefore eliminates morbidity while reducing operative time.

Objective: To explore effectiveness of arthroscopic Eden-Hybinette procedure with Triple-Pulley and four point anti-rotation fixation technique in the treatment of recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder joint.
Methods: A clinical data of 14 patients with recurrent anterior dislocation of shoulder joint and glenoid bone defect, who were met the selective criteria and admitted between February 2021 and February 2022, was retrospectively analyzed. All patients were treated with arthroscopic Eden-Hybinette procedure and the bone blocks were fixed by using Triple-Pulley and four point anti-rotation fixation technique.
Prospective comparison of two different surgical technique in the treatment of deep osteochondral lesions of the talus: mosaicplasty versus all-arthroscopic technique with scaffold and autograft bone taken from the tibial plafond.

Introduction: There are various surgical techniques applied for the treatment of osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT). The mosaicplasty technique is one of the most commonly used methods for deep lesions. The all-arthroscopic technique with scaffold and autograft bone taken from the tibial plafond is a novel method as an alternative to the mosaicplasty.
