| Abstract |
Osteochondritis dissecans (OD) is a lesion of the subchondral bone which can result in sequestration of the osteochondral lesion. It is categorized into 4 stages, and juvenile and adult forms depending on the distal femoral physis maturity. Prognosis and treatment depends on age and stage. Prognosis is favorable in stable lesions (stage I and II) at typical location (medial femoral condyle) in a child with open physes. Therefore non-operative treatment is indicated. If there is no response to non-operative treatment drilling to create channels for potential revascularization can be done. In unstable lesions (stage III and IV) operative treatment is necessary. Long-term results after excision of the fragment with or without drilling of the defect site are poor. Therefore refixation of an intact osteochondral fragment or biologic reconstruction should be tried. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 16 July 2021.
All research outputs
#8,534,976
of 25,374,647 outputs
Outputs from Die Orthopädie
#58
of 678 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#27,903
of 76,171 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Die Orthopädie
#1
of 2 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,374,647 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 43rd percentile – i.e., 43% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 678 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 1.5. This one has done well, scoring higher than 75% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 76,171 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 16th percentile – i.e., 16% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 2 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has scored higher than all of them
