Osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs) are difficult to treat. Arthroscopic microfracture augmented with micronized cartilage (BioCartilage; Arthrex, Naples, FL) and platelet-rich plasma is emerging as a treatment for moderate-sized, well-contained full-thickness OLTs. This treatment may provide superior histologic results and is less technically demanding and yields less morbidity than an open osteochondral allograft or autograft transfer. This technique guide presents the senior author's preferred strategy for treatment of a moderate-sized OLT with arthroscopic microfracture and placement of micronized cartilage and platelet-rich plasma.
