| Sumario: | Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture has a big incidence in athletes; the surgical procedures is vital for the restoration of its function, but without post-surgical physical therapy, the surgery will not fulfill the expectations. This article discusses the case of a female patient, a 28-year-old recreational soccer player, with a surgical intervention for the reconstruction of the left ACL with a semitendinosus autograph. She received a physiotherapy treatment for 7 months by a macrocycle of periodized training for biological recovery phases using gym and sport functional training. At the end of treatment, the healthy limb showed 135° in knee flexion, 48 centimeters in thigh circumference, 28 reps in leg curl and 30 reps in leg extension, while the affected limb showed 130° in knee flexion, 46.5 centimeters in thigh circumference, 26 reps in leg curl and 28 reps in leg extension. The treatment can be used as a guide to manage ACL reconstructions and other knee injuries. |
