Video Summary

The video discusses a study on the clinical outcomes of autologous osteochondral transplantation (AOT) for osteochondral lesions of the talus. The study examines the impact of age on outcomes following AOT. A retrospective cohort study was conducted on 78 patients who underwent AOT. Clinical outcomes were evaluated using FAOS scores. Multivariable linear regression analysis revealed that defect size, shoulder lesion, and prior microfracture were predictors of poor postoperative outcomes. Surprisingly, age was not found to be associated with clinical outcomes. The presence of cystic lesions or traumatic etiology did not significantly affect postoperative FAOS scores. The study provides valuable information for selecting patients for the AOT procedure. No credits were mentioned.
