Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate the clinical efficacy and prognostic factors associated with autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation for the treatment of single cystic osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT). METHODS The clinical data of patients with single cystic OLT undergoing autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation at the Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery of our hospital between 2018 and 2022, including complete follow-up, were retrospectively analyzed. Imaging data from each patient were imported into Mimics software to measure the surface area, volume and depth of the lesions. Then, the talus nine-compartment partitioning method was used to partition the injury site. Preoperative and final follow-up assessments were performed using the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score, visual analogue scale (VAS) for pain and 36-item Short-Form Health Survey (SF-36) to evaluate treatment efficacy and analyze prognostic factors. RESULTS Of the 31 patients with single cystic OLT with a complete set of follow-up data, there were 17 males and 14 females, with a mean age of 43.3 ± 13.6 years, a mean follow-up time of 30.1 ± 14.0 months and a mean illness duration of 30.4 ± 20.0 months. The postoperative final follow-up AOFAS score was 90.7 ± 5.5; this represented significant improvement when compared to the preoperative score of 57.0 ± 8.5 (P < 0.001). The final postoperative follow-up VAS score was 18.5 ± 8.3; this was significantly better than the preoperative score of 57.8 ± 8.7 (P < 0.001). The physical component summary (PCS) score and mental component summary (MCS) score on the SF-36 scale showed significant improvement at the final postoperative follow-up when compared to preoperative scores (p < 0.001). No other complications were observed during follow-up, such as wound infection or pain at the donor site. One of the patients showed less improvement, which may be related to premature weight-bearing or re-sprained ankle after surgery. There was no significant correlation between the duration of illness, gender and the location, depth, surface area and volume of the OLT and the postoperative scores. However, patient age showed a significant negative correlation with the postoperative SF-36 PCS and MCS scores. CONCLUSION Autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation for single cystic OLT demonstrated good clinical efficacy with a low incidence of complications. Furthermore, age represents an important factor influencing prognosis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level II.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare cartilage quality after different surgical interventions for osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT), evaluated by second-look arthroscopy. Secondary aims were to report concomitant diagnoses, and to correlate cartilage quality with clinical and radiological outcomes. This review hypothesizes that the cartilage repair after bone marrow stimulation (BMS) is inferior to the other available treatment options. METHODS PROSPERO ID: CRD42022311489. Studies were retrieved through PubMed, EMBASE (Ovid), and Cochrane Library. Studies were included if they reported cartilage quality after second-look investigation after surgical treatment of OLT. The primary outcome measure was the cartilage quality success and failure rates (%) per surgical intervention group. Correlations between the cartilage quality and clinical or radiological outcomes were calculated. RESULTS Twenty-nine studies were included, comprising 586 ankles that had undergone second-look arthroscopy on average 16 months after initial surgery. The success rate for BMS was 57% (95% confidence interval [CI] = 48%-65%), for fixation (FIX) 86% (95% CI = 70%-94%), for osteo(chondral) transplantation (OCT) 91% (95% CI = 80%-96%), for cartilage implementation techniques (CITs) 80% (95% CI = 69%-88%), and for retrograde drilling 100% (95% CI = 66%-100%). The success rate of BMS was significantly lower than FIX, OCT, and CIT (P < 0.01). There were no significant differences between other treatment groups. A moderate positive significant correlation between the Magnetic Resonance Observation of Cartilage Repair Tissue (MOCART) score and the International Cartilage Repair Society score (ICRS) was found (ρ = 0.51, P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS Successful restoration of cartilage quality was found in the majority of surgically treated OLTs. However, BMS yields inferior cartilage quality compared with FIX, OCT, and CIT.
