Osgood‐Schlatter Disease: Ossicle Resection and Patellar Tendon Repair in a Symptomatic Adult
View through CrossRef
Abstract
Chronic Osgood‐Schlatter disease can cause significant knee pain and can result in severe functional deficits. For large, painful Osgood‐Schlatter disease ossicles refractory to conservative management, surgical ossicle excision can provide resolution of symptoms. After diagnostic arthroscopy and intra‐articular debridement, our preferred excision technique uses an open incision for direct visualization and removal of intratendinous ossicles, followed by distal patellar tendon repair and subsequent fixation with FiberTape sutures and knotless anchors to the tibial tubercle.
