Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses a case of an eight-year-old male who presented with bilateral knee pain. The pain was located in the supermedial and anteromedial regions and worsened with activity. The speaker emphasizes the importance of assessing the location of the pain to determine if it is related to an osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesion or not. An MRI revealed an OCD lesion in the right knee, while the left knee was unaffected. The patient followed a protocol of avoiding impact activities and, after six weeks, reported no pain with daily activities. At 18 months, the patient had returned to all activities, including sports, without any symptoms. The video includes MRI images comparing before and after treatment. No credits were mentioned in the transcript.
