First Stage (1st- 15th Day After Injury)•1 -Knee brace locked in extension with pillow under triceps

during bed rest (Complete rest for the first 48 hours) (retained when walking for about a month until good quadriceps control is regained)

•2 -Cryotherapy•Cryotherapy: ice bag on the knee (20 min six times a day).•Active foot flexion-extension (ankle pump" exercise 5-min

every half hour).•3 -Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) as required.

Aims•1 -completely eliminate swelling

• 2 -regain ROM 0°-900 and

• 3 -build on strengthening exercises .

Fourth Stage (60th - 90th Day)

•Aims•1 -Progress strength exercises

•2 -Advanced proprioceptive training•3 -Begin a gradual return to running

Page 14: First Stage (1st- 15th Day After Injury) 1- Knee brace locked in extension with pillow under triceps during bed rest (Complete rest for the first 48 hours)

Fourth Stage (60th - 90th Day)•1 -Semi-squat

•7 -Dynamic proprioceptive exercises•8-Start running Begin a gradual return to running. Once

the athlete can run for 20 to 30 minutes without any problems then speed work can be gradually introduced Start at 50% of maximum speed and increase each session to 90% of maximum speed. Include backwards and sideways running drills as well as quick changes of

direction .

Fifth Stage (90th Day Onwards)

•Aims•1 -regain full strength

•2 -begin to return to sports specific training•3 -return to sports specific training and

competition

Page 17: First Stage (1st- 15th Day After Injury) 1- Knee brace locked in extension with pillow under triceps during bed rest (Complete rest for the first 48 hours)

Fifth Stage (90th Day Onwards)•1 -Resumption of training

•2 -Plyometric exercises (hopping and bounding possible during this stage) .

•3 -Sprinting speed should now be near to normal and the athlete able to change direction at speed and

•Normal sports specific training should now be resumed .

•3 -gradual return to specific sport footballer may play only 20 minutes of a game .

Safely return to your sport or activity•when, starting from the top of the list and progressing to the end,

each of the following is true:

1-have full range of motion in the injured knee compared to the uninjured knee .

2 -have full strength of the injured knee compared to the uninjured knee .

3 -can jog straight ahead without pain or limping . 4 -can sprint straight ahead without pain or limping .

5 -can do 45-degree cuts, first at half-speed, then at full-speed. 6 -can do 20-yard figures-of-eight, first at half-speed, then at full-

speed . 7 -can do 90-degree cuts, first at half-speed, then at full-speed . 8 -You can do 10-yard figures-of-eight, first at half-speed, then at

full-speed . 9 -You can jump on both legs without pain and you can jump on

the injured leg without pain.

Surgical treatment •Surgery to reconstruct a PCL-deficient knee is most

often indicated with avulsion injuries .•Young subjects with severe laxity, clinically

significant instability and radiographical evidence of a posterior tibial translation exceeding 10 mm should be reconstructed when the onset of degeneration is foreseen

•Reconstructive procedures using the semitendinous tendon, the tendon of the medial gastrocnemius, the Achilles tendon, the patellar tendon, or synthetic material to replace the lost PCL have been recommended.

Page 20: First Stage (1st- 15th Day After Injury) 1- Knee brace locked in extension with pillow under triceps during bed rest (Complete rest for the first 48 hours)

•Ligamentisation is less successful than after ACL re construction for three reasons:

•( 1 )posterior translation of the tibia due to the force of gravity

•(2)overstretching of the new ligament by the flexors

•(3 )the slant of the femoral and tibial graft tunnel, especially the latter .
