title: Varus ankle and osteochondral lesions of the talus.
abstract: Considerable recent orthopedic literature is dedicated to either the surgical management of OLTs and correction of varus ankle alignment, but little is published on the combination of these 2 problems. We anticipate that future clinical and biomechanical research will address their simultaneous treatment; until then, we will continue to extrapolate from their independent management.
