Treatment of anterior cruciate ligament ruptures

Uffe Jørgensen, Michal Rindom Krogsgaard

Abstract

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are typically seen in cutting sports. Rehabilitation can be tried in athletes in non-cutting sports and in recreational athletes. If knee instability is experienced, the cessation of risk activities or reduction in activity level are recommended. With recurrent episodes of instability ACL-reconstruction is recommended. 65% return to sports at preinjury level after ACL-reconstruction, 18% after non-operated partial rupture and 7% after non-operated total rupture.
