A case of osteochondritis dissecans of the lateral femoral condyle and patellofemoral joint surface occurring in the same knee
نویسندگان
چکیده
More than 70% of osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesions in the knee joint occur on the posterolateral surface of the medial femoral condyle, designated as the classic area. Approximately 15–20 % of OCD lesions in the knee joint occur in the inferior–central part of the lateral femoral condyle, and 1 % or less occur on the patellofemoral joint surface [1, 2]. We encountered a patient who simultaneously developed OCD in the inferior–central part of the lateral femoral condyle and in the patellofemoral joint surface.

INTRODUCTION Osteochondritis dissecans of the lateral femoral condyle is relatively rare, and it is reported to often be combined with a discoid lateral meniscus. Given the potential for healing, conservative management is indicated for stable osteochondritis dissecans in patients who are skeletally immature. However, patients with osteochondritis dissecans of the lateral femoral condyle combin...
متن کامل[Osteochondritis dissecans occurring in the patella and medial femoral condyle in the same knee].
Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) is a condition in which a portion of articular cartilage separates from the bone together with the underlying subchondral bone. Its classical localization is the medial femoral condyle. We presented a 14-year-old boy who had OCD lesions in both the medial femoral condyle and patella in the same knee joint. He presented with complaints of pain, swelling, and locki...

Twenty-two knees with osteochondritis dissecans diagnosed before skeletal maturity were followed prospectively into middle age: 32% had radiographic evidence of moderate or severe osteoarthritis at an average follow-up of 33.6 years; only half had a good or excellent functional result. We found that osteoarthritis was more likely to occur if the defect was large or affected the lateral femoral ...
