One-Step Repair in Talar Osteochondral Lesions: 4-Year Clinical Results and T2-Mapping Capability in Outcome Prediction.

The article report the results after 4 years of a series of patients who underwent a one-step repair of osteochondral lesions of the talar dome, as well as the capability of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) which used a T2-mapping sequence to predict the clinical outcome. It also discusses method and gives various results. It was concluded that the quality of the regenerated tissue detected by MRI T2 mapping directly correlated with the clinical results.
