Video Summary
In this video, the speaker discusses the importance of understanding bone marrow lesions in relation to osteoarthritis. They explain that bone marrow lesions can be cystic or non-cystic and can be associated with cartilage, osteoarthritis, and various mechanisms. The speaker emphasizes that it is crucial to treat the underlying causes of bone marrow lesions, such as mechanical overload, osteoarthritis, or subchondral insufficiency fractures. They highlight that bone marrow lesions are highly associated with cartilage loss, OA symptoms, and an increased risk of total joint arthroplasty. The speaker also mentions a study on the use of calcium phosphate for treating bone marrow lesions and discusses the potential future use of biologics for this purpose.
