  Achilles Tendon Rupture (ATR) is one of the typical soft tissue injuries.
Rehabilitation after such a musculoskeletal injury remains a prolonged process
with a very variable outcome. Accurately predicting rehabilitation outcome is
crucial for treatment decision support. However, it is challenging to train an
automatic method for predicting the ATR rehabilitation outcome from treatment
data, due to a massive amount of missing entries in the data recorded from ATR
patients, as well as complex nonlinear relations between measurements and
outcomes. In this work, we design an end-to-end probabilistic framework to
impute missing data entries and predict rehabilitation outcomes simultaneously.
We evaluate our model on a real-life ATR clinical cohort, comparing with
various baselines. The proposed method demonstrates its clear superiority over
traditional methods which typically perform imputation and prediction in two
separate stages.
