Summary

This study looks at how teenagers with a knee condition called osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) feel emotionally and whether they are mentally ready to return to sports. Researchers will survey 120 patients aged 11-19 to measure stress and depression as they go through standard treatment. The goal is to understand the psychological impact of the diagnosis and treatment, not to test a new therapy.
