Abstract
Introduction
Studies have reported various effects of autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) on osteochondral defects of the talus. Therefore, to assess the effectiveness of ACI for osteochondral defects of the talus, we used the meta-analytic approach.
Materials and methods
Electronic databases PubMed, Embase, and the Cochrane Library were systematically searched to identify eligible studies from their inception until November 2020. The random-effects model was used to calculate the incidence of success rate and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score for patients after ACI treatment. Subgroup analyses were also conducted based on age, technique, indication, size, and follow-up duration.
Results
For the final meta-analysis, we selected 23 case series studies with a total of 458 patients with osteochondral defects of the talus. Overall, after ACI for patients with osteochondral defects of the talus, we noted that the incidence of success rate was 89% (95% confidence interval (95% CI) 85%–92%; P < 0.001). Moreover, after ACI for patients with osteochondral defects of the talus, the AOFAS score was 86.33 (95% CI 83.33–89.33; P < 0.001). Subgroup analysis showed that the AOFAS score after ACI is significantly different when stratified by the mean age of the patients (P = 0.006).
Conclusions
This study revealed that the use of ACI could provide a relatively high success rate and improve the AOFAS score for patients with osteochondral defects of the talus, which should be recommended in clinical practice.
