Abstract

To describe a new surgical technique for osteochondral lesions of the ankle, using bone marrow concentrate on a scaffold and homologous bone graft positioned through a retrograde approach. Many surgical options for ankle osteochondral lesions have been described, and the ideal treatment is still debated. Bone marrow stimulating techniques are recommended for cystic lesions, with some concerns regarding the healing potential of the subchondral bone. In case of wide osteochondral defects, regenerative solutions are preferred but a massive chondral debridement is usually required. To overcome these problems, a novel technique is proposed.
