Development of osteophytes and joint space narrowing is associated with cartilage degeneration of the osteochondral fragment in the osteochondral lesion of the talus
Background
During surgery for osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT), preservation or excision of the osteochondral fragment is chosen based on the cartilage condition which influences the indication and clinical outcomes of surgical treatments. However, it is difficult to predict arthroscopic and histological findings of the cartilage on osteochondral fragments by radiographic evaluation. We focused on osteoarthritis (OA) changes on plain radiographs to predict the cartilage condition of the OLT. This study aimed to evaluate whether OA changes, including osteophyte and joint space narrowing, could predict arthroscopic and histological findings of the cartilage in OLT.
Methods
Seventy ankles with OLT were included in this study. Osteophytes and joint space narrowing were scored on plain radiographs. Lesion sizes were measured on computed tomography images. The cartilage surfaces of fragments were arthroscopically assessed using the International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) grade. Biopsy specimens from 32 ankles were histologically analyzed using the Mankin score. The relationships between OA scores, lesion size, ICRS grades, and Mankin score were analyzed.
Results
OA changes were frequently observed with increasing ICRS grades, especially in the medial tibiotalar joint. OA scores in patients with ICRS grade 1 were significantly lower than those in ICRS grades 2,3, and 4. The lesion sizes in patients with ICRS grade 3 and 4 were significantly smaller than those in patients with ICRS grade 1 and 2. Histological analysis showed increasing Mankin scores as the ICRS grade worsened. A mild correlation existed between the OA and Mankin scores (rs = 0.494).
Conclusions
OA changes, such as osteophyte formation and joint space narrowing, are associated with arthroscopic findings of the articular surface and cartilage degeneration in osteochondral fragment in OLT. Articular cartilage conditions can be predicted by OA changes on plain radiographs, which is useful for choosing the appropriate treatment for patients with OLT.
