Popis:	Osteochondral fractures in skeletally immature patients are rare. A retrospective case series is reported looking at the use of Omnitech compression screws for these injuries.Nine patients with a mean age of 14 were included in the study with a mean follow up of 26 months.The average KOOS, IKDC and Tegner Lysholm Scores were 86.7, 90.34 and 96.1 respectively.The use of Omnitech screws in the acute setting for skeletally immature patients shows excellent short-term outcomes.
