Klaus Pastl, OCD specialist from Linz, answers this and many other questions about osteochondrosis dissecans (OCD) in this guidebook. He talks about the symptoms, causes and various treatment options for osteochondrosis dissecans. He explains a wide variety of conservative treatment options as well as surgical materials and surgical methods. Among other things, he also talks about Shark Screw\u00ae, a screw made from human bone that is colonized by the body&#8217;s own cells and can help heal osteochondrosis.[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"vcex-spacing wpex-w-100 wpex-clear\" style=\"height:20px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221;]<strong>Reading time: 3 min<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text]<div class=\"vcex-spacing wpex-w-100 wpex-clear\" style=\"height:20px;\"><\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1674543878899{padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-bottom: 10px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;background-color: #e5e5e5 !important;border-radius: 10px !important;}&#8221;]\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\"><strong>Author of the article:<\/strong> Dr. Klaus Pastl<br \/>\nFoot surgeon and OD expert from Linz, Austria<br \/>\nThe author is a renowned specialist in Austria for foot surgery and osteochondrosis dissecans surgery.<br \/>\nUpdated 15.09.2022<\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/3&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column]<div class=\"vcex-spacing wpex-w-100 wpex-clear\" style=\"height:15px;\"><\/div><style>.vcex-heading.vcex_6a7f867cacc55{color:#828282;font-size:30px;}<\/style><h2 class=\"vcex-heading vcex-heading-plain vcex-module wpex-heading wpex-text-2xl wpex-text-center vcex_6a7f867cacc55\"><span class=\"vcex-heading-inner wpex-inline-block\">What is osteochondrosis dissecans, or OCD for short?<\/span><\/h2><div class=\"vcex-spacing wpex-w-100 wpex-clear\" style=\"height:15px;\"><\/div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text font_size=&#8221;15px&#8221;]<strong>Osteochondrosis dissecans<\/strong>, also called <strong>OCD<\/strong>, is a disease that leads to cartilage and bone damage (bone necrosis). More precisely, it leads to the death of bone close to the joint. At the beginning of this disease, only the bone is affected (stage I-II), the cartilage remains intact. As the disease progresses, the cartilage in the joint changes (stage II-III), until finally the cartilage or bone becomes detached (stage III-IV). The cartilage bone fragment that detaches at an advanced stage is also called a<strong> joint mouse<\/strong> or <strong>dissekat<\/strong>. It can move freely in the joint space, which can lead to considerable pain but also damage and blockage of the joint. If these <strong>osteochondral defects<\/strong> remain untreated, the joint can be partially destroyed. As a later consequence, joint wear and tear, i.e. osteoarthritis, may develop. Osteochondrosis dissecans occurs most frequently in the knee joint, but can also occur in the hip, elbow joint or ankle joint (talus). Mainly affected by OCD are young people who are growing and athletic people. However, older people can also suffer from <strong>osteochondrosis dissecans<\/strong>. Often the course of the disease shows considerable differences between young and old affected persons.<\/p>\n<p>Therefore, <strong>osteochondrosis dissecans<\/strong> is also divided into 2 groups:<\/p>\n<p>Juvenile OCD (JOCD): In children as well as adolescents with an open growth plate.<br \/>\nAdult OCD: In adults with a closed growth plate.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]<style>.vcex-icon.vcex_6a7f867cad5e4{font-size:30px;}.vcex-icon.vcex_6a7f867cad5e4 .vcex-icon-wrap{color:#00aeef;}<\/style><div class=\"vcex-icon vcex-module vcex-icon-normal wpex-float-none wpex-m-auto wpex-text-center vcex_6a7f867cad5e4\"><div class=\"vcex-icon-wrap wpex-inline-flex wpex-items-center wpex-justify-center wpex-leading-none\"><span class=\"wpex-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 448 512\"><path d=\"M246.6 470.6c-12.5 12.5-32.8 12.5-45.3 0l-160-160c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.8 0-45.3s32.8-12.5 45.3 0L224 402.7 361.4 265.4c12.5-12.5 32.8-12.5 45.3 0s12.5 32.8 0 45.3l-160 160zm160-352l-160 160c-12.5 12.5-32.8 12.5-45.3 0l-160-160c-12.5-12.5-12.5-32.8 0-45.3s32.8-12.5 45.3 0L224 210.7 361.4 73.4c12.5-12.5 32.8-12.5 45.3 0s12.5 32.8 0 45.3z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/div><\/div><style>.vcex-heading.vcex_6a7f867cadb1a{color:#828282;font-size:30px;}<\/style><h2 class=\"vcex-heading vcex-heading-plain vcex-module wpex-heading wpex-text-2xl wpex-text-center vcex_6a7f867cadb1a\"><span class=\"vcex-heading-inner wpex-inline-block\">What are causes of osteochondrosis dissecans?<\/span><\/h2><div class=\"vcex-spacing wpex-w-100 wpex-clear\" style=\"height:15px;\"><\/div>[vc_column_text]The exact causes that trigger <strong>osteochondrosis dissecans<\/strong> have not been fully clarified to date.

Of course, there are also other factors that favor the <strong>development of osteochondrosis dissecans<\/strong>. For example, children and adolescents who are active in sports are more likely to develop osteochondrosis dissecans. Therefore, it is assumed that recurring mechanical loads during sports trigger a reduced perfusion of the bones, which leads to the death of small bone areas (necrosis).<\/p>\n<p>Such constant loads, e.g. in the knee joint, can cause microtrauma, which leads to the local blood supply at the joint being disturbed. Such microtrauma is mainly caused by sports that require rapid stopping movements or changes of direction, as is the case with soccer or tennis players.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<div class=\"ult-modal-input-wrapper ult-adjust-bottom-margin\" data-keypress-control=\"keypress-control-enable\" data-overlay-control=\"overlay-control-enable\"><button style=\"background:#00adef;border-color:#00adef;color:#ffffff;\" data-class-id=\"content-6a7f867cade0a4-69387336\" class=\"btn-modal btn-primary btn-modal-lg overlay-show ult-align-center\" data-overlay-class=\"overlay-cornerbottomleft\">Jetzt Osteochondrosis dissecans Experten anfragen<\/button><\/div>\n<div class=\"ult-overlay content-6a7f867cade0a4-69387336 \" data-class=\"content-6a7f867cade0a4-69387336\" id=\"button-click-overlay\" style=\"background:rgba(51,51,51,0.8);

This is made possible by the so-called Havers channels inside the screw. Bone cells and the body&#8217;s own vessels can settle in these channels and thus expand. This helps to supply the bone fragment with nutrients again. In this way, the dead bone fragment regains contact with vital patient bone. In addition, the Shark Screw\u00ae saves the patient a second operation to remove the metal, but also reduces sick leave and risks.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner]<div

When sport can be practiced again depends on the stage of the OCD and the course of recovery. A consultation with the treating physician should always take place beforehand.
