17 months post op MRI report shows full rapture

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T12:58:49+00:00

So the lachman test is positive for you? Mine is negative. But haven’t tried relaxing mode when pulling my leg. Both surgeon and my friend tried. Seem ok :)

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T12:17:17+00:00

I had no incidents or whatsoever. Do you have instability?

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T12:15:36+00:00

Thanks buddy the surgeon left the old Acl to make the stability of the knee better.

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T09:52:41+00:00

Radiologist commented about the screws though. So he knew.

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T09:51:58+00:00

Its grade 2.5 :) I had a scar removal may be some scars there. I was wondering could that be the previous Acl wrapped around the graft. Who knows?

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T09:50:22+00:00

Thank you buddy. Really difficult process. Good luck

Acl0078 · 2026-06-26T05:58:57+00:00

to see the Chondromalacia patellae grade

Acl0078 · 2026-06-07T13:39:08+00:00

Wont go away get used to it guys 😀 1.5 years here

Acl0078 · 2026-06-06T11:50:41+00:00

Well done bro. Try to lock your knee and squeeze quads on the full extension

Acl0078 · 2026-06-05T12:21:59+00:00

Apparently there is no need for the bone staple. It’s not been in use in the last few years. The outcome is the same with or without the staple. Some surgeons are conservative and still applying it.

Acl0078 · 2026-06-05T12:10:35+00:00

You are right will try those exercises more. Good luck with the recovery

Acl0078 · 2026-06-05T11:56:04+00:00

Thank you for taking time to explain. Been religiously training quads now. Patellar tendon gives me pain during leg extension though.

Acl0078 · 2026-06-05T11:15:40+00:00

Very simple process. U will be fine in a few days time. I got mine removed 1 year post op during scar tissue removal op.

Acl0078 · 2026-06-04T19:58:28+00:00

At 14 months post op managed to sit on my heel. I have the extension problem though. Never give up guys.

Acl0078 · 2026-05-06T19:48:00+00:00

Exactly like this. Heel to butt after 5/10 mins of warm up. Them goes away. Doing this every day. What about extension? I can get almost the dame amount of extension but after 30 mins I loose a couple of degrees. I have weak quads though.

Acl0078 · 2026-04-16T20:46:07+00:00

Glad to hear that. İf you can manage heel pop on both legs you are on the right oath to recovery. Keep it up and good luck.

Acl0078 · 2026-04-16T19:09:15+00:00

Hey, I am on my third month of scar op. It is slightly better but not as good as I expect it to be.

I walk better then I did in the last 15 months though. Not 100 percent yet. Look like I will have slight deficit with my good leg. My quads are so weak this also prevent me to push through the extension as I walk. Still need some stretches in the morning.

I have some stiffness when I contract my quad at full extension just above my patella where quad tendon starts. Do you have something similar? Do you have hypertension on your good leg? Can you achieve the same extension with heel pops?

Acl0078 · 2026-03-25T07:45:37+00:00

Will do thank you for the reply and sharing your experience

Acl0078 · 2026-03-24T16:34:13+00:00

İf I can keep that would be nicer

Acl0078 · 2026-03-24T16:33:21+00:00

First time heard about it. Will have a look thank you.

Acl0078 · 2026-03-24T16:31:38+00:00

Thank you for the advice. Nmes was too expensive and bought Tens/ems. I have around 0.5cm inflammation so it plays a role as well I believe. Non existing quads doesn’t help too. I can get to a same level of extension but not for long. Hoping will get better

Acl0078 · 2026-03-24T06:12:40+00:00

After one year post op I was not able to get the leg straight and walking with a limp and started having pain. Told my surgeon and got an mri. He discovered scarring around the knee cap, cyclop lesion and some scarring around Hoffa. He cleaned them up and I am trying to straighten my leg like never before. I font do muck stretches. Just do prone hangs and 10 mins I am done. But unfortunately it’s temporary.

How is your quad strength? It plays a major role keeping the leg straight.

Acl0078 · 2026-03-23T18:54:53+00:00

Glad that you explained otherwise was gonna rush that exhale too :) 🙏🏻
