Journal ArticleDOI
The Roles of Mechanical Stresses in the Pathogenesis of Osteoarthritis: Implications for Treatment of Joint Injuries.
TL;DR: Advances in understanding of how altering mechanical stresses can lead to remodeling of osteoarthritic joints and how excessive stress causes loss of articular cartilage provide the basis for new biologic and mechanical approaches to the prevention and treatment of OA.
Journal ArticleDOI
Physical validation of a patient-specific contact finite element model of the ankle.
Donald D. Anderson,Jane K. Goldsworthy,Wendy Li,M. James Rudert,Yuki Tochigi,Thomas D. Brown +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a validation study was conducted to determine the extent to which computational ankle contact finite element (FE) results agreed with experimentally measured tibio-talar contact stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Contribution of articular surface geometry to ankle stabilization.
TL;DR: The documented changes in contact stress illustrate the major role of articular geometry in passive ankle stabilization and support the conceptual mechanism of ankle stabilization by redistribution ofArticular contact stress.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ankle alignment on lateral radiographs. Part 1: sensitivity of measures to perturbations of ankle positioning.
Yuki Tochigi,Jin-Soo Suh,Jin-Soo Suh,Annunziato Amendola,Douglas R. Pedersen,Charles L. Saltzman +5 more
TL;DR: The T-T ratio tolerated perturbations of ankle positioning best among the tested measures and is potentially applicable to clinical radiographic measurement when determining the anteroposterior tibial-talar alignment in ankles with articular degeneration or TAR.
Journal ArticleDOI
Talar Dome Access for Osteochondral Lesions
TL;DR: Most of the talar dome can be accessed perpendicularly for resurfacing without malleolar osteotomy, and clear clinical guidelines are generated regarding the surgical approach to resurface theTalar dome with osteochondral techniques.
