Procedure: autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft transplantation
Procedure: autologous osteochondral graft transplantation
Device: autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft
Registration Number
NCT03347877
Lead Sponsor
Peking University Third Hospital
Brief Summary

The trial evaluates the clinical efficacy and safety of autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft transplantation for Hepple V osteochondral lesions of the talus. Half of participants will receive autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft transplantation, while the other will receive osteochondral graft transplantation as a control group.

Detailed Description

Autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft surface is a periosteal structure, with the ability of repairment to cartilage, periosteum is closely connected to the cortical bone, then the deep loose cancellous bone.The objective of the study is to evaluate the clinical efficacy of autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft transplantation for Hepple V osteochondral lesions of the talus by randomized controlled trial. 70 patients with clinically diagnosed Hepple V talus osteochondral lesions according to 1: 1 were divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group will be treated with autologous osteo-periosteal cylinder graft transplantation under arthroscopy. The control group will be treated with autologous osteochondral graft under arthroscopy. The patients will be treated by the same surgeon in this study group. Postoperative MRI MOCART evaluation, clinical AOFAS score, VAS score, Tegner score, and the secondary arthroscopy ICRS score will be selected as the measures of outcome. The incidence of adverse events will be recorded.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society(AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score4 years

American Orthopaedic Foot \& Ankle Society(AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score. The higher score represent the better outcome.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Tegner activity level score4 years

The highest level of activity that you participated in before your injury and the highest level you are able to participate in currently. The higher values represent a better outcome.

International Cartilage Repair Society(ICRS) score4 years

International Cartilage Repair Society(ICRS) score. The higher score represent the better outcome.

Magnetic Resonance Observation of cartilage repair tissue(MOCART) score4 years

Magnetic Resonance Observation of cartilage repair tissue(MOCART) score. The higher score represent the better outcome.

Visual analogue scale4 years

The visual analogue scale or visual analog scale (VAS) is a psychometric response scale which can be used in questionnaires. It is a measurement instrument for subjective characteristics or attitudes that cannot be directly measured. When responding to a VAS item, respondents specify their level of agreement to a statement by indicating a position along a continuous line between two end-points. From 0 to 10, no pain 0, worst pain imaginable 10. The higher values represent a worse outcome.
