  • Purpose : ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction using achilles allograft was done for whom ACL injured person in recreational sports activity. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical results and return to their sports activity in these patients. Materials and Methods : ACL injured 56 amateur athletes who had experienced sports 3 times a week more than 5 years, reconstructed with Achilles allograft, and it was analyzed subjective and objective parameter, Tegner scoring, Telos stress arthrometer, Lysholm Knee Scoring System and modified Feagin scoring system. The average age was 25 years old (range: 18$\~$49), the average follow up period was 15 months (range: 12$\~$19). Morbid sports were football (29 cases), basket ball (14 cases), badminton (5 cases), tennis (3 cases), squash (2 cases) and otherwise (3 cases). Result : The mean Lysholm Knee Scoring System was improved to 88.2 from 60. Telos arthrometer in anterior stress test revealed 2.3 mm improved from 7.1 mm. The modified Feagin scoring system showed 50 cases (89$\%$) with excellent and good results. We had obtained 12 cases (21$\%$) of Tegner score VI, 32 cases (57$\%$) of score V, 20 cases (35%$\%$ of score IV, 3 (5.3$\%$) cases of score III. Conclusions : Reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligaments can restore stability sufficient to allow sports activity in ACL injured patients, but it’s difficult to achieve 'normal' sports activity. So we will have to solve the reasons of this dissatisfaction at furthermore.

  • Rupture of the rectus femoris at the musculotendinous junction is very rarely reported in the literature, especially which is caused by chronic repetitive stimulation. A 21 year old soldier complained of progressing right thigh pain and mass for 8 weeks after military training. MRI of the right thigh showed inhomogenous mass lesion suspecting soft tissue tumor. However ultrasonographic examination showed torn retracted rectus femoris tendon at musculotendinous junction. One year after primary repair of ruptured tendon, the patient is free from symptoms and returned to full previous activities. Knowledge of this sonographic and MRI finding will help the surgeon to diagnose and treat this rare injury.
