This video shares a 4-month post-operative recovery check-in for a patient who underwent an Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction, recorded by Dr. Don Buford.
Key Highlights:
- The Procedure: The patient underwent an autologous hamstring ACL reconstruction. To reinforce the tendon graft, accelerate healing, and stimulate remodeling, Dr. Buford augmented the procedure with a BioBrace implant—a specialized biocomposite scaffold.
- Mobility Testing: At the 4-month mark, the patient demonstrates his range of motion on an examination table, highlighting fluid extension and flexion in both legs.
- Symmetry: The patient's operated leg (the left knee) shows excellent, symmetrical extension and bending when compared directly to the non-operated right leg, indicating a strong recovery trajectory.
