Autologous Osteoperiosteal Transplantation for the Treatment of Severe Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus

August 4, 2024 updated by: Peking University Third Hospital

A Multicenter Prospective Cohort Study of Autologous Osteoperiosteal Transplantation for the Treatment of Severe Osteochondral Lesions of the Talus

The goal of this clinical trial is to establish a multicenter prospective cohort of patients with severe osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT), evaluate the clinical efficacy of autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation and the incidence of postoperative donor-site morbidity. The main questions it aims to answer are:

Does autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation have good clinical outcomes in the treatment of severe OLT? Does autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation treat severe OLT with fewer postoperative complications?

Participants will:

Undergo autologous osteoperiosteal transplantation for OLT Receive clinical follow-up 3, 6, 12, and 24 months after surgery and answer scales of ankle function assessment Take CT and MRI preoperatively and 12 and 24 months after surgery

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS)
Time Frame: Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
The Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) is an extensive tool designed to evaluate the patient's perception of their foot and ankle conditions, with 0 indicating the worst possible outcome, and 100 representing the best possible outcome. The scale of FAOS score will be answered by participants during clinic follow-up preoperatively, and 6 weeks 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery.
Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Complications
Time Frame: Final follow-up (48 months after surgery)
Complications, including infection,hematoma, stiffness, recurrent ankle pain will be continuously followed during clinic follow-up and will be overall collected 24 months after surgery.
Final follow-up (48 months after surgery)
American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society Score (AOFAS)
Time Frame: Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
The AOFAS is a standardized tool used to evaluate the outcomes of treatments for foot and ankle disorders, with 0 indicating severe disability or extreme problems, and 100 indicating no disability or problems.The scale of AOFAS score will be answered by participants during clinic follow-up preoperatively, and 6 weeks 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery.
Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS)
Time Frame: Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
The Visual Analog Scale (VAS) is a simple and widely used method for assessing the intensity of pain and other subjective experiences, with 0 indicating no pain, and 100 indicating the worst possible pain. The scale of VAS score will be answered by participants during clinic follow-up preoperatively, and 6 weeks 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery.
Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
Ankle Activity Score (AAS)
Time Frame: Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
The AAS is a scoring tool to assess sports activity for the ankle joint, with zero point indicating the lowest activity level, and ten points indicating the highest activity level. The scale of AAS score will be answered by participants during clinic follow-up preoperatively, and 6 weeks 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery.
Pre-surgery and 6 weeks and 3, 6, 12 and 24 months after surgery
Magnetic Resonance Observation of Cartilage Repair Tissue (MOCART)
Time Frame: 12 and 24 months after surgery
The Magnetic Resonance Observation of Cartilage Repair Tissue (MOCART) score is a grading system used to evaluate the quality of cartilage repair tissue through MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging), with 0 indicating poor cartilage repair quality, and 100 indicating excellent cartilage repair quality. MOCART score will be assessed on magnetic resonance imaging 12 and 24 months after surgery.
12 and 24 months after surgery
International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS)
Time Frame: 12 months after surgery
The International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) score is a grading system used to assess the condition of articular cartilage, especially in the context of cartilage repair procedures, with 0 indicating poor cartilage repair quality, and 12 indicating excellent cartilage repair quality. ICRS score will be assessed 12 months
12 months after surgery
