Video Summary

In this video, a panel of experts discusses two cases involving cartilage lesions in athletes. The first case is a 27-year-old male with an osteochondral lesion in the medial femoral condyle. The panel discusses the importance of proper alignment and considers options like osteotomy and osteochondral grafting. The second case is a 16-year-old male with a similar lesion in the lateral femoral condyle. The panel discusses the possibility of repair, including techniques such as using screws or bioabsorbable materials. The panel also emphasizes the importance of follow-up and monitoring for any changes in the knee. The video ends with the panel agreeing on the need for close follow-up and potential intervention if symptoms arise. No credits were granted in the video.
