The management of osteochondral defects of the talus remains a clinical challenge
as a result of the poor intrinsic healing potential of cartilage. Osteochondral lesions
of the talus (OLT) is a relatively commonly cause of ankle pain and disability (Fig 1). Cartilage has very limited ability for repair or regeneration. A biologic solution
to the repair of significant cartilage defects is the “holy grail.” Some of the obstacles
to cartilage repair are the fact that it is highly vascular, hypocellular, and the
chondrocytes are “imprisoned” in a matrix (Fig 2).
