Management

- assess stability

- ORIF if needed

 

Stiffness

 

Incidence

 

10%

 

Requirements

 

70 swing phase

80o climb up stairs

90o climb down stairs + sit down in chair

100o low chair

 

NHx

 

Stiffness usually subsides at 6-8/52

- generally improves out to 3/12

- slow improvement for up to next 9/12

 

Background

IncidenceRevision ACL Ruptured Graft MRI BPTB Allograft

 

Up to 8% patients with ACL reconstruction will have recurrent instability and graft failure

- increased with surgical inexperience

 

Graft can

 

1.  Be inadequate from the start

- inadequate tension

- poor tunnel placement
