Abstract

An 18-year-old male hurdler reported to preparticipation physicals, with a history of anterior cruciate ligament, lateral collateral ligament, and posterior cruciate ligament sprain; medial meniscocapsular sprain; and biceps femoris tendon avulsion. The patient received full clearance from his surgeon, despite functional deficits. Rehabilitation and return-to-play decision making included analysis of patient-reported outcome scores and tests of symmetry and neuromuscular control. After graduated intervention and multiple batteries of assessments, the patient was allowed to return to full participation. The nature of this sport and the time between surgery and the intervention made thorough evaluation of function and graduated progression a necessity.
