📌 Pathogenesis of Osteochondritis Dissecans

 

✅ Osteochondritis Dissecans

  • The disturbed segment, known as "a progeny," may develop laminar calcifications or ossify partially/completely.
  • Detachment starts at the deep, basal portion of the lesion, creating a cleft and causing fragment instability.
  • This instability disrupts the bone plate and overlying articular cartilage, leading to fragment separation.

 

✅ Disturbance of Epiphyseal Growth Plate

  • An unknown insult disturbs a small area of the epiphyseal growth plate.
  • This leads to localized delay or cessation of normal ossification.
  • The affected segment remains cartilaginous while the rest of the epiphysis continues to ossify.
  • A radiolucent crater forms in the area of hindered cartilage ossification.

 

✅ Chronic Osteochondral Lesion

  • Osteochondritis dissecans is a chronic lesion occurring in young adults and children.
  • It involves progressive separation of articular cartilage and underlying subchondral bone.
  • The cleavage plane is situated in the subchondral bone, eventually affecting the full thickness of the overlying articular cartilage.
