en پا و مچ پا Foot and Ankle مروری Review Paper <div style="text-align: justify;">Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the talus is a rare but clinically significant condition in children and adolescents. Management strategies include both conservative and surgical approaches, and choice of treatment depends on lesion stability, skeletal maturity, and symptom severity. Conservative management is generally effective for stable lesions, while surgery is reserved for unstable or refractory cases. Pediatric patients demonstrate favorable outcomes overall, with younger age and open growth plates associated with better healing potential. This mini-review summarizes current evidence on treatment strategies, outcomes, and prognostic factors in pediatric talar OCD, highlighting considerations for clinical decision-making.</div> Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), Talus, Pediatric ankle, Treatment strategies, Conservative management, Surgical treatment 71 74 http://jros.iums.ac.ir/browse.php?a_code=A-10-2737-1&slc_lang=en&sid=1 Mohammadreza Bahaeddini Mrbahaeddini@yahoo.com 10031947532846008529 10031947532846008529 No Department of Orthopedic, Bone and Joint Reconstruction Research Center, School of Medicine, Shafayahyaeian Hospital, Iran University of Medical Sciences, Tehran, Iran.
