What's the best cure for osteochondritis dissecans?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Osteochondritis: The treatment depends on the size of the defect and whether the fragment is still attached. An MRI can be helpful. The defect can be drilled, fixed in place or grafted. The options can be discussed with your doctor.
