摘要
The aim of this study was to evaluate the functional and radiological outcome of TruFit plugs. We retrospectively reviewed 10 patients who underwent treatment for a symptomatic chondral/osteochondral lesion using one or more Trufit Plugs. Full incorporation of the bony portion of the plug occurred in only 3 and partial incorporation in 7 lesions. The remaining portion of these 7 lesions looked cystic on MRI. The significance of this cystic change is not clear. Though all 10 patients showed some improvement on the IKDC scoring system but the amount of the improvement was small.
