  • Title: Rehabilitation of anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
    Author: Blackburn TA.
    Journal: Orthop Clin North Am; 1985 Apr; 16(2):241-69. PubMed ID: 4000659.
    Abstract:
    The previously outlined exercise program for the knee is for the instability that results from the loss of the anterior cruciate ligament and/or capsular ligaments laterally. Its success depends on communication between surgeon, therapist, and trainer. Each must understand what the other is doing and must follow the biomechanical and healing restraints of the surgery. The understanding of soft tissue healing is ongoing. Research in this field will greatly enhance the rehabilitation programs of the future.
