Video Summary

In this video, a patient in his early 30s with chronic ankle pain and instability is discussed. The patient has a defect in his medial talar dome, confirmed by an MRI scan. The suitability of different surgical approaches for treating the lesion is discussed, with considerations for size and containment. The patient had previously undergone an arthroscopic debridement and microfracture but still experiences symptoms. The options for further treatment include excising the lesion, a cartilage transplant, or an osteochondral allograft. The video ends with a discussion on the importance of accurate surgical reports and the complexity of treating failed previous surgeries.
