The goal of this systematic review was to examine existing evidence on the effectiveness of
early, progressive weight bearing on patients after traumatic lower extremity fractures and …

Persistent muscle weakness, tendon elongation, and incomplete return to preinjury level are
frequent sequelae after acute Achilles tendon rupture, and evidence‐based knowledge of …

Rehabilitation protocols post-Achilles tendon repair vary widely, particularly regarding
weight bearing (WB) and immobilization duration, impacting recovery trajectories …

Introduction Optimal postoperative rehabilitation regimen for acute Achilles tendon rupture
(AATR) remains unclear. It is important to evaluate whether early functional weight-bearing …

Objective The optimal treatment and rehabilitation strategy for acute Achilles tendon rupture
(ATR) remain a debate. This study aimed to compare the results of the two postoperative …
