Osteochondral fracture of the glenoid can be caused by traumatic damage in the shoulder, and addressing this injury can be challenging due to the complexity of the condition and the various treatment options. Left untreated, this injury can lead to post-traumatic arthritis and shoulder instability. There have been different surgical techniques for addressing osteochondral fracture, including open and arthroscopic methods, such as debridement, screw fixation, and bone graft, but there is a lack of a universally accepted treatment guidelines. In this technical note, the authors introduce a simple stabilization method for an osteochondral fracture of anterior-inferior glenoid using double-row suture bridge technique through trans-subscapularis portal created by an "inside-out" technique.

Acute on chronic stress fracture after a medial malleolar osteotomy following osteochondral lesion of the talus treatment.

BMJ Case Rep

January 2025

Orthopaedic Surgery and Sports Medicine, Amsterdam UMC Location AMC, Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

A patient in his 40s presented at the outpatient clinic with sudden pain and swelling over his medial malleolus, 16 weeks after he had undergone osteoperiosteal autografting with a medial malleolar osteotomy for his tertiary osteochondral lesion of the talus. Postoperatively, the patient was treated using the regular evidence-based rehabilitation protocol of 5 weeks of non-weight-bearing and 5 weeks of partial weight-bearing. However, after the confirmed radiological union the patient experienced an acute on chronic stress fracture through the osteotomy line.

Background: Demineralized bone matrix (DBM) is a commonly utilized allogenic bone graft substitute to promote osseous union. However, little is known regarding outcomes following DBM utilization in foot and ankle surgical procedures.

Aim: To evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcomes following DBM as a biological adjunct in foot and ankle surgical procedures.

Arthroscopic Removal of Traumatic Fractures of the Proximal Medial Trochlear Ridge of the Talus: A Retrospective Analysis of 18 Horses.

Vet Comp Orthop Traumatol

January 2025

Donnington Grove Veterinary Surgery, Newbury, Berkshire, United Kingdom.

Objective:  The objectives of this study were (1) to evaluate the need for flexed radiographs of the proximal medial trochlear ridge (PMTR) after trauma involving medial tarsus; (2) to evaluate outcome following arthroscopic removal of traumatic osteochondral fragments (TOCF) resulting from direct injury to PMTR.

Methods:  Records of patients with wounds to the medial tarsus were searched and those with TOCF of the PMTR included. Patient history, fracture etiology, preoperative diagnostics, and intraoperative findings were documented.

Background: Limitations to using the knee as donor cartilage include cartilage thickness mismatch and donor site morbidity. Using the radial head as donor autograft for capitellar lesions may allow for local graft harvest without distant donor site morbidity. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate the feasibility of performing local osteochondral autograft transfer from the nonarticular cartilaginous rim of the radial head to the capitellum.
