Treatment of Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus With Cell-free Polymer-based Scaffold in Single-Step Arthroscopic Surgery

Treatment of Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus With Cell-free Polymer-based Scaffold in Single-Step Arthroscopic Surgery

Arthroscopic techniques have recently gained popularity for the treatment of osteochondral defects of the talus. The microfracture procedure is the most commonly applied arthroscopic technique. However, it is not effective for the treatment of larger lesions. Tissue-engineered scaffolds have been us...
