Hi Jon. I am at West Point, met with the surgeon today. We are going with a 4-strand Semi-t, Gracilis graft repair. I am going to have one of the OR nurses take pictures for me during the surgery. I will post them after the surgery.

You can test us on anatomy afterwards. Good luck with the surgery.

Hi everyone. Last night was probably one of the toughest nights I have ever had. Pretty painful. Today though I am doing great. I was able to get 0-90 active assistive and am able to do SLRs with about a 2 degree lag. I ended up having fairly large medial meniscal tear and a small posterior lateral meniscal tear. I will write more later, the percocet has me in lala land.

Wow! 0-90 AAROM? Thats great. Feel better and let the meds do their thing. Are you wearing a leg brace in extension? Or did they decide to not have you wear it? Do the dew.

Good to hear you're doing well post-op Alex! All you have is a 2 degree lag? Very impressive...almost as impressive as your range. Keep it up (the good work as well as the leg...get that good ol' post-op effusion down ASAP). :)
Keep us posted!

Treatment of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries, Part 2
Bruce D. Beynnon,*† PhD, Robert J. Johnson,† MD, Joseph A. Abate,† MD,
Braden C. Fleming,‡ PhD, and Claude E. Nichols,† MD
From the †Department of Orthopaedics and Rehabilitation, McClure Musculoskeletal Research Center, University of Vermont, Burlington, Vermont, and the ‡Department of Orthopaedic
Research, Brown Medical School, Providence, Rhode Island
Anterior cruciate ligament tears, common among athletes, are functionally disabling; they predispose the knee to subsequent injuries and the early onset of osteoarthritis. A total of 3810 studies published between January 1994 and the present were identified and reviewed to determine the current state of knowledge regarding the treatment of anterior cruciate ligament injuries. Part 1 of this article focused on studies pertaining to the biomechanical behavior of the anterior cruciate ligament, the prevalence of and risk factors for injuries related to it, the natural history of the ligament-deficient knee, injuries associated with anterior cruciate ligament disruption, indications for the treatment of anterior cruciate ligament injuries, as well as nonoperative and operative treatments. Part 2 includes technical aspects of anterior cruciate ligament surgery, bone tunnel widening, graft healing, rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and the effects of sex, age, and activity level on the outcome of such reconstructive surgery.
Part 2 out this month. I have sent it to all emails above. If you did not receive this and you want a copy, please send me a private message with your email address.
Alex
