The evolution of three-dimensional knee kinematics after ACL reconstruction within one year
The kinematic recovery of the knee joint in ACLR patients presents multidimensional characteristics and dynamic changes. The recovery rates and patterns differ significantly across dimensions, with some abnormalities not fully corrected within one-year post-urgery. These findings provide scientific evidence for individualized rehabilitation strategies, emphasizing the need for strengthening joint stability and range of motion recovery in the early postoperative phase (0-6 months) and focusing on correcting rotational and flexion-extension function during the later phase (6-12 months) to further improve knee function and prevent long-term adverse outcomes.
