The evidence supporting best practice guidelines in the field of cartilage repair of the ankle are based on both low quality and low levels of evidence. Therefore, an international consensus group of experts was convened to collaboratively advance toward consensus opinions based on the best available evidence on key topics within cartilage repair of the ankle. The purpose of this article is to report the consensus statements on Post-treatment Follow-up, Imaging and Outcome Scores developed at the 2017 International Consensus Meeting on Cartilage Repair of the Ankle.
