Zusammenfassung:Abstract Talus osteochondral defects are a common cause of ankle pain and disability, and require prompt and effective treatment to prevent further damage and improve function. While surgical interventions, such as arthroscopy debridement and bone marrow concentrate therapy, have been used separately to treat these injuries, their combination may offer synergistic benefits.
