Video Summary
Paul Caldwell discusses Capitellar Osteochondritis Dissecans (OCD), emphasizing its complexity despite 130 years of study. Predominantly affecting young baseball players, OCD involves subchondral bone injury from repetitive trauma and biomechanical stress. Diagnosis relies on ultrasound screening, X-rays, MRI (94% accuracy), and arthroscopy. Treatment decisions consider growth plate status, lesion size, location, and stability. Non-operative management works better with open growth plates and smaller lesions. Surgical options include arthroscopic loose body removal, microfracture, drilling, and fixation techniques. Caldwell showcases various arthroscopic and open procedures, stressing the need for multiple approaches. Early detection and tailored treatment are key for optimal outcomes.
