The following exercises can only be considered as a supplement to the guidelines furnished by the doctor which performed the operation. Specific precautions are necessary as the operation can be complicated. The training must not bring about swelling or pain in the knee.
KONDITION
Unlimited: Cycling with raised saddle. Swimming (Backstroke). Running in deep water.

UDSPÆNDING
(10 min):

Lie on your back. Draw the injured leg up towards your head so that the muscles in the back of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Perform the exercise with outstretched as well as bent knee. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be performed standing with the injured leg outstretched on a chair while the upper body is bent slightly forwards.

Stand with support from the back of a chair or the wall. Using your hand, bend the knee and draw the foot up and your knee slightly backwards so that the muscles in the front of the thigh become increasingly stretched. Hold the position for 20 seconds and relax for 20 seconds before repeating. The exercise can also be done lying down. If you lie on your stomach you can draw the foot up by using a towel.

Results of reconstruction of acute ruptures of the anterior cruciate ligament with an iliotibial band autograft.

Bak K, Jorgensen U, Ekstrand J, Scavenius M. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 1999;7(2):111-7.

Forty patients with an acute complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) underwent primary reconstruction with an iliotibial band autograft after median 15 (range 0-90) days. Objective and functional evaluation was performed after median 37 (range 24-87) months by two independent observers using the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) knee evaluation form, the Lysholm knee function score, and the Tegner activity score. During the observation period 5 patients sustained an ACL tear in the contralateral knee, and 1 patient (2.5%) sustained a graft rupture and underwent re-reconstruction. For the remaining 34 knees the Lysholm score at follow-up was median 100 (range 84-100, mean 97 [+/- 4]), all patients scoring excellent (n = 28) or good (n = 6). Three patients (9%) had more than 3 mm side-to-side difference in anteroposterior laxity. All 4 ligament failures occurred in patients operated on within the first 2 weeks after the injury. Twenty-six patients (76%) returned to the same level of activity as prior to the injury. Of 8 who dropped to a lower activity level, only one ascribed this to problems with the operated knee, meaning that 26 of 27 (96%) returned to their desired level of activity. According to the overall IKDC evaluation, 14 patients (40%) had a normal knee (A), 13 (37%) had a nearly normal knee (B), 5 (14%) had an abnormal knee (C), and 2 (9%) had a severely abnormal knee (D). Ten patients (25%) had the staples removed due to local irritation, and further 6 (15%) had local symptoms from the tibial staples. The harvest site gave 8 (20%) patients cosmetic complaints, but all graded this as slight, and 3 (8%) had slight pain during activity from the lateral muscular hernia. In selected individuals performing vigorous knee activities, autologous reconstruction of acute ACL disrupted knees with a combined internal and external iliotibial band transfer demonstrates excellent results after median 3 years. The failure rate is comparable to other techniques.

Revision ACL reconstruction using autogenous patellar tendon graft.

Eberhardt C, Kurth AH, Hailer N, Jager A. Knee Surg Sports Traumatol Arthrosc 2000;8(5):290-5.

This retrospective study examined revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a bone-tendon-bone autograft of the patellar ligament. We followed up 44 patients (mean age 27.9 years) for an average of 41.2 months. Clinical examination with the Lachmann and pivot shift tests showed clearly improved stability; KT-1000 arthrometer measurements had a mean difference of 3.5 mm in side-to-side comparison. The evaluated knee scores were significantly improved (P<0.01); the median Lysholm score was 85 and the median Tegner activity score 5.0 at follow-up. In the IKDC ranking system 75.0% of knees were rated normal or nearly normal (grades A and B). According to a modified Fairbank scale, progression of radiographic signs of osteoarthritis was noted in 36.4%. There was a significant difference (P<0.05) in progression of radiographic signs of osteoarthritis between patients with major (grades III, IV) versus minor (grades I, II) lesions of the articular cartilage surface and between knees with versus without extensive synovitis due to previous synthetic graft reconstruction (P<0.05). Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using an autogenous patellar tendon graft shows good results with improved knee function compared to the prerevision status and is in line with various operative techniques described in the literature. Progression of osteoarthritis must be expected in patients with major lesions of the articular cartilage surface and knees with long-term extensive synovitis due to previous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using synthetic grafts.
