However, no clear evidence is available to support this belief, and despite much speculation the cause of both juvenile and adult osteochondritis dissecans remains unclear.​[4]​History and examKey diagnostic factorspresence of risk factorspain is exacerbated

Younger age is a risk factor for developing recurrent or postoperative osteochondritis dissecans after surgery for discoid lateral meniscus with/without preoperative osteochondritis dissecans. To evaluate the efficacy of surgical treatment of the discoid lateral meniscus with osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) through clinical and radiological evaluations, focusing on recurrent or postoperative OCD

microRNAs are differentially expressed in equine plasma of horses with osteoarthritis and osteochondritis dissecans versus control horses. Osteoarthritis (OA) is a leading cause of lameness in horses with no effective disease-modifying treatment and challenging early diagnosis. OA is considered a disease of the joint involving the articular cartilage, subchondral bone, synovial membrane , and ligaments. Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) is a joint disease consisting of focal defects in the osteochondral unit which may progress to OA later in life. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been recognized as small non-coding RNAs that regulate a variety of biological processes and have been detected in biological fluids. MiRNAs are currently investigated for their utility as biomarkers and druggable targets

Nineteen years of radiographic screening: Impact of sepsis and evolution of osteochondrosis dissecans prevalence in Walloon sport horses born between 2004 and 2022. Osteochondrosis dissecans is a particularly common developmental orthopaedic disorder in equines. Among its causes, the hereditary component is no longer a matter of debate, and, for several decades, the various studbooks for sport horses have been selecting stallions in order to limit the prevalence of this condition in the population. However, to our knowledge, no study has evaluated changes in the prevalence of osteochondrosis dissecans over time through longitudinal monitoring of a population of sport horses. The study presented here is part of a large screening programme for developmental orthopaedic pathologies in Wallonia

Outcomes of Concentrated Bone Marrow Aspirate with Extracellular Matrix in Pediatric and Adolescent Patients with Capitellar Osteochondritis Dissecans. Humeral capitellar osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesions can be challenging to treat. Past studies have demonstrated grafting with extracellular matrix with bone marrow aspirate concentrate (ECM-BMAC) to be a viable technique for treatment

Adolescents with Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Femoral Condyle Present with High Rates of Corresponding Coronal Malalignment. Osteochondritis dissecans of the knee (KOCD) may be a source of pain in active, skeletally immature patients. An association between the condylar lesion location and lower-extremity coronal plane malalignment has been established, but clinical implications have been

Subchondral defects resembling osteochondrosis dissecans in joint surfaces of the extinct saber-toothed cat Smilodon fatalis and dire wolf Aenocyon dirus. Skeletal disease may hamper the behavior of large predators both living and extinct. We investigated the prevalence of osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD), a developmental bone disease affecting the joints, in two Ice Age predators: the saber

Editorial Commentary: At Least 2 out of 3 Adolescent Athletes Can Return to Preinjury Sports After Marrow Stimulation for Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Elbow. Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the capitellum is a common cause of elbow pain in young throwers and gymnasts, symptoms of which can rob these young athletes of valuable time participating in sporting activities. The optimal treatment

Deep Learning-Based Computer-Aided Diagnosis of Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Humeral Capitellum Using Ultrasound Images. Ultrasonography is used to diagnose osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the humerus; however, its reliability depends on the technical proficiency of the examiner. Recently, computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) using deep learning has been applied in the field of medical science

Five-Year Follow-up of Adolescent Gymnasts After Surgical Treatment of Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Elbow. Elbow osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) is well-studied in throwing athletes; however, there are limited data regarding gymnasts with capitellar OCD lesions. We aimed to determine the overall rate of return to competition following surgical treatment of capitellar OCD lesions

Clinical Outcomes of Osteochondritis Dissecans Lesions of the Capitellum Treated with Arthroscopy with a Mean Follow-Up of 8.3 Years. While numerous studies exist evaluating the short-term clinical outcomes for patients who have undergone elbow arthroscopy for osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the capitellum, the literature on minimum 2-year clinical outcomes for a large cohort of patients

Magnetic Resonance Imaging Assessment of Cartilage Appearance Following Marrow Stimulation of Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Humeral Capitellum. Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the capitellum is often treated by marrow stimulation techniques with good long-term outcomes. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can be used to characterize the healing of cartilage repair tissue. However, no formal

Longitudinal 3T MRI T(2) * mapping of Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) lesions differentiates operative from non-operative patients-Pilot study. Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) is an orthopedic joint disorder of children and adolescents that can lead to premature osteoarthritis. Thirteen patients (mean age: 12.3 years, 4 females), 15 JOCD-affected and five contralateral

Physician preferences in diagnostics and treatment of juvenile osteochondritis dissecans are diverse across the knee, ankle and elbow: an ESSKA survey. To investigate the current preferences regarding the work-up and treatment choices of juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) of the knee, ankle and elbow among orthopaedic surgeons. An international survey was set up for all European Society treatment of choice. Furthermore, plain radiography and MRI were the preferred imaging modalities for the knee and ankle, but not for the elbow. For determining the operative technique, physicians agreed that the size of the lesion is an important prognostic factor in all joints. These findings help us understand how juvenile osteochondritis dissecans is treated in current practice and may provide

Epiphyseal cartilage vascular architecture at the distal humeral osteochondritis dissecans predilection site in juvenile pigs. Failure of endochondral ossification due to interruption of the vascular supply to the epiphyseal cartilage is a critical step in the development of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD). Herein we describe the vascular architecture of the distal humeral epiphyseal cartilage

Capitellum Osteochondral Allograft Transplantation for Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Elbow. Reconstruction of unstable osteochondritis dissecans lesions of the capitellum using fresh osteochondral allograft transplantation from the capitellum has the advantages of restoring hyaline cartilage, matching the native radius of curvature, and avoiding the donor-site morbidity encountered with osteochondral autograft transfer. This technical note describes the indications and contraindications, pertinent anatomy, and surgical technique of open osteochondral allograft transplantation using fresh distal humerus allograft for the treatment of unstable osteochondritis dissecans lesions of the capitellum.

Compositional evaluation of lesion and parent bone in patients with juvenile osteochondritis dissecans of the knee using T(2) * mapping. Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) lesions contain cartilaginous, fibrous and osseous tissues which are difficult to distinguish with clinical, morphological magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Quantitative T * mapping has earlier been used to evaluate

Conservative treatment for stable osteochondritis dissecans of the elbow before epiphyseal closure: effectiveness of elbow immobilization for healing. Stable lesions of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the capitellum have been treated with activity restriction (AR), and the complete healing requires 1 or 2 years. Little is known about the effectiveness of elbow immobilization. We hypothesized
