dc.description.abstractBackground: Previous research using osteochondral autograft transfer (OAT) has shown poorer outcomes with increasing patient age. The aim of this article is to evaluate a cohort of patients that received an OAT and to correlate their clinical results with their age at procedure. Methods: Patients that underwent an OAT to treat an osteochondral (OC) lesion with a minimum 24-month follow-up were included. Patients were categorized into two groups based on their age at procedure (<40 years and ≥40 years). Postoperatively, each patient completed the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), and Lysholm scales. Results: 51 patients were included (35<40 years, 16≥40 years). Mean follow-up was 4.2 years (2-7). For patients<40 years, IKDC averaged 80.8 (SD 15.9) versus 71.2 (SD 19.4) in ≥40 years (p=0.03). For patients <40 years, Lysholm averaged 85.9 (SD 10.8) versus 77.0 (SD 21.6) in ≥40 years (p=0.02). For patients<40 years, KOOS averaged 78.3 (SD 11.8) versus 68.9 (SD 18.5) in ≥40 years (p=0.01). There was a 100% sensibility in identifying all the patients with a poor IKDC and Lysholm from 34 years old (AUC 0.76 and 0.8). Conclusions: OAT has better outcomes in patients younger than 40 years compared to patients older than 40 years. Based on the prognostic capacity of age, the ideal candidate for an OAT is a patient younger than 34 years old.
