Background: While the characteristics of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the knee that require surgery to heal have been described, several surgical techniques/procedures exist with no consensus established regarding timing of treatment and specific surgical intervention. In this study, we aim to determine current trends in surgical treatment for OCD lesions in the skeletally immature who have failed 6 months of nonoperative management by surveying a large cohort of orthopaedic surgeons.
Methods: An electronic survey designed using REDCap to capture surgeon treatment preferences for OCD lesions was distributed to members of the Pediatric Orthopaedic Society of North America (POSNA).
