The specific etiology is frequently unknown; however, it is thought to result from multifactorial contributions including acute trauma, recurrent microtrauma, inflammation, or inherited diseases involving vascular perfusion and ossification anomalies. Treatment is largely dictated by patient symptoms and their association with lesion stability, location, skeletal maturity, activity goals, and surgeon preference. Stable lesions can frequently be treated nonoperatively, but unstable lesions typically require surgical intervention that addresses lesion instability where possible. Arthroscopy is used to initially visualize and evaluate the lesion, followed by reduction and internal fixation. If the fragment is salvageable with a bony base, internal fixation with metal compression screws is a reliable strategy for enhancing patient outcomes with low rates of reoperation and failure. This review will focus on the surgical indications, techniques, and outcomes of internal fixation with metal compression screws in unstable OCD lesions of the knee.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54678,"journal":{"name":"Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine","volume":"31 2","pages":"Article 151003"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43708551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Surgical treatment often involves arthroscopy to visualize the lesion, followed by open reduction and internal fixation of the OCD lesion after debridement and preparation of the fracture bed. Various types of implants can be used for fixation of OCD lesions. Historically, metal implants were widely used due to their compression force, but the advent of bioabsorbable implants has provided additional options with promising results. Currently available bioabsorbable implants vary in size, composition, and shape, which leads to differences in their usage, benefits, and complications. Several small clinical series have reported success with the use of a wide array of bioabsorbable implants. This article will summarize bioabsorbable implant options and characteristics, surgical indications and techniques for OCD fixation, and the recent literature on clinical outcomes and complications after OCD fixation with different implants.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":54678,"journal":{"name":"Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine","volume":"31 2","pages":"Article 151005"},"PeriodicalIF":0.3,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49747551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
