In silico assessment of talus osteochondral lesion size and location on biomechanical load distribution using tilted talar dome planes

From a clinical standpoint, since lesions in zones 8, 7, and 3 significantly impact joint biomechanics compared to other zones, more aggressive cartilage restoration or augmentation could be required while lesions in less problematic zones like zone 9 can be treated withmicrofracture surgery.
