What is No Difference in Patient Reported Outcomes Between Cohorts Undergoing Lesion-specific Surgery for Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Knee about?
Introduction There is a paucity of data on patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) associated with surgical treatment of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD). As a result, preoperative patient and family counseling regarding expected outcomes is difficult. The purpose of this study was to compare pre-to post-operative changes in PROMs amongst cohorts of patients with OCD that underwent one of three lesion-specific surgical treatments: 1) transarticular drilling for stable lesions, 2) drilling and fixation for unstable lesions 3) grafting for unsalvageable lesions. Methods The electronic medical records of pediatric and adolescent patients with knee OCD, at a single institution between January 2017 and August 2019, were reviewed. Patients were categorized into one of three surgical groups, with initial determination confirmed at the time of surgery during diagnostic knee arthroscopy. Differences between groups were assessed with one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). Results Of the 78 patients included in this study, 49 (62.8%) were male with a mean age of 13.5 ± 2.2 years. There was no significant difference between the surgical groups for baseline HSS Pedi-FABS (P = 0.58) or PROMIS Mo
