Seventeen protocols (56.7%) recommended immediate postoperative bracing for femoral condyle lesions and 17 (89.5%) recommended immediate postoperative bracing for patellofemoral lesions. The average time to permitting weight-bearing as tolerated (WBAT) was 6.1 weeks (range, 0-8) for femoral condyle lesions and 3.7 weeks (range, 0-8 weeks) for patellofemoral lesions. There was considerable variation in the inclusion and timing of strength, proprioception, agility, and pivoting exercises. For femoral condyle lesions, 10 protocols (33.3%) recommended functional testing prior to return to sport at an average of 23.3 weeks postoperatively (range, 12-32 weeks). For patellofemoral lesions, 4 protocols (20.0%) recommended functional testing for return to sport at an average of 21.0 weeks postoperatively (range, 12-32 weeks).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A minority of US academic orthopedic programs publish microfracture rehabilitation protocols online.
