Introduction.
We evaluate the midterm results of thirty patients who underwent autologous chondrocytes implantation for talus osteochondral lesions treatment.
Materials and Methods.
From 2002 to 2009, 30 ankles with a mean lesion size of 2,36 cm2 were treated.
We evaluated patients using American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Surgery and Coughlin score, Van Dijk scale, recovering time, and Musculoskeletal Outcomes Data Evaluation and Management System.
Results.
The mean AOFAS score varied from 36.9 to 83.9 at follow-up.
Average of Van Dijk scale was 141.1.
Coughlin score was excellent/good in 24 patients.
MOCART score varied from 6.3 to 3.8.
Discussion.
This matrix is easy to handle conformable to the lesion and apply by arthroscopy.
No correlation between MRI imaging and clinical results is found.
Conclusions.
Our results, compared with those reported in literature with other surgical procedures, show no superiority evidence for our technique compared to the others regarding the size of the lesions.
