Résumé

Despite 150 years of research, there are currently no reliable morphological characteristics that can be used to differentiate between stable and unstable juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) lesions in the knee joint. Arthroscopic probing is still the gold standard. In arthroscopic evaluation, a previously undescribed pattern of a cartilaginous convex elevation ("hump") was identified as a new feature and potential sign of JOCD in transition to instability. The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes after surgical intervention (drilling) on the "hump". In a retrospective case series of sixteen patients with an arthroscopically detectable "hump", the analysis of clinical function scores (Lysholm, Tegner) and morphological MRI monitoring of radiological healing were performed. The assessment of lesion healing was based on pre- and postoperative MRI examinations. The "hump" was defined as an arthroscopically impressive protrusion of the femoral articular surface with a minimally softened, discolored, but intact cartilage margin that, is not mobile upon in the arthroscopic palpation hook test. The primary therapy of choice was drilling of all "humps". The "hump" could be detected arthroscopically in 16 of 59 JOCD lesions. Specific MRI correlations with the "hump" or arthroscopic unstable lesions could not be detected. Not all "humps" showed signs of MRI-based healing after the drilling, and in some a dissection of the osteochondral flap occurred within the first postoperative year. As a result, secondary refixation became necessary. In the present study, the "hump" was identified as an important differential diagnostic arthroscopic feature of an arthroscopically primarily stable JOCD lesion, potentially placing the lesion at risk of secondary loosening over time. Therefore, drilling alone may not be appropriate in the event of arthroscopic "hump" discovery, but additional fixation may be required to achieve the healing of the lesion. III.
