Clinical tips: retrograde drilling of talar osteochondral defects.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We hypothesized that patients undergoing nonoperative treatment for asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs) would not deteriorate clinically or radiologically over time. METHODS:Forty-eight patients (mean age = 48 years; range, 13-78 years) with an OLT confirmed by ma...
