  • Best 15 minutes of education available

    I’m a PGY-2 resident and have been listening this podcast for two years now (dating back to MS4 days). With that said, I believe there is invaluable education here with these monthly podcasts, and this led me to think about of the concepts presented in ways myself that I otherwise would not have.

    The Q&A format opens up to a deep dive into concepts that simply reading the articles myself would not have obtained.

    Will be a longtime listener. Thanks!!

FAI September 2025 Podcast: Immediate Postoperative Weightbearing Following Arthroscopic Bone Marrow Stimulation for Talar Osteochondral Lesions: A Matched Cohort Study
Q: In your experience, does duration of symptoms prior to bone marrow stimulation make a difference?
Yes, longer duration of symptoms can lead to pain sensitization, affecting recovery and the timeline of functional improvement post-op.
FAI September 2025 Podcast: Immediate Postoperative Weightbearing Following Arthroscopic Bone Marrow Stimulation for Talar Osteochondral Lesions: A Matched Cohort Study
Q: Would you please share with the readers whether the presence of a subchondral cyst influences outcome of bone marrow stimulation for OLTs?
We treat the cyst cavity walls, and while postoperative cystic recurrence is common, it is not correlated with clinical outcomes in these patients.
FAI September 2025 Podcast: Immediate Postoperative Weightbearing Following Arthroscopic Bone Marrow Stimulation for Talar Osteochondral Lesions: A Matched Cohort Study
Q: Given your extensive experience in the management of osteochondral lesions of the talus, would you please share with the listeners your tips and tricks for optimal bone marrow stimulation?
Key essentials for optimal bone marrow stimulation include precise lesion debridement, using low-impact techniques with small diameter picking under arthroscopic control, and careful patient selection.

Q: Gino, as senior author, would you please give the listeners a brief summary of your paper and its major findings?
In this matched cohort study, we aim to evaluate whether immediate post-op weight-bearing after arthroscopic bone marrow stimulation caused the convalescence of the talus, leading to different outcomes compared to a more traditional delayed weight-bearing approach.
