Purpose: To provide a comprehensive systematic review to determine the impact of early weight-bearing compared with late weight-bearing on the clinical outcomes of patients who underwent osteochondral lesion of the talus (OLT) and were treated with autologous osteochondral transplantation (AOT) and to review the rate of return to sports and/or activities, patient satisfaction, and complications.
Methods: A systematic review of the PubMed, Embase, and The Cochrane Library databases was performed according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systemic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Publications were divided into group A, in which patients were allowed early weight-bearing within the first 6 weeks, whereas group B consisted of patients who were only allowed weight-bearing after 6 weeks.
