Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans
Updates to Case Attributes
Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans is a disease occurs occurs in pediatric and adolescenceadolescent age groups before the closure of growth plateplates. Many etiologies are hypothesized such as genetic causes, repetitive trauma, inflammation and ischemia. Knee is the commonest site, particularly the posterolateral aspect of the medial femoral condyle. Bilateral involvement is common.

There is a large crater (osteochondral defect) seen in the medial femoral condyle filled by joint effusion associated with subchondral cystic changes as well as focal bone marrow edema.
Osteochondral fragment seen in the intercondylar area just anterior to ACL root.
Large amount of joint effusion reaching the suprapatellar bursa.
Features are consistent with Juvenile osteochondritis dissecans (OCD).
