Neither approach is recommended for osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLTs), which are best treated by arthroscopic bone marrow stimulation with microfracture surgery, particularly for symptomatic OLTs &lt;15 mm in diameter. This article discusses a comparison of delayed and early weight-bearing postoperative regimens for patients treated by microfracture for small to midsized OLTs.</style></abstract><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">34</style></number><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">14</style></volume></record></records></xml>
