Sumario:Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (JOCD) is a joint disorder of the subchondral bone and articular cartilage that affects skeletally immature patients. The aetiology of JOCD is unknown and the natural history is poorly characterized in part due to inconsistent and largely retrospective literature. Most OCD in children and adolescents presents as a stable lesion amenable to non-operative treatment or minimally invasive drilling. However, unstable forms can require a more aggressive approach. This article reviews the most recent literature available and focuses on the pathophysiology, diagnosis and treatment of JOCD of the knee. Cite this article: EFORT Open Rev 2019;4:201-212.
