Hello,
As per my clinical experience, the chronic knee trauma, particularly that of meniscus tear may pause issue of calcification in the area over a period of time which is pathological. The osteochondral impact means abnormal ossification or calcification via process of inflammation and deposition of chondral tissue abnormally.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
