Abstract

Increased loading in a localized area is a possible cause of pain-related osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT), but the reported effects of realignment surgery for OLT have been anecdotal. Moreover, no report of realignment surgery for OLT could be found in the English literature. This study reviewed previous articles on lower extremity alignment and OLT to determine if OLT can be treated with realignment surgery.
