Rehabilitation Strategies Following Posterolateral Corner Repair for Left Knee Dislocation With Multiligament Injury: A Case Report.

Curēus 2024 March
This case report describes the rehabilitation of a 54-year-old female patient with a left knee dislocation and multiligament injury after surgery. The patient experienced persistent pain and difficulty with weight-bearing, leading to the need for surgical repair. The rehabilitation protocol included three phases: pain management, range-of-motion (ROM) restoration, muscle strength improvement, proprioception, and equilibrium promotion. Modalities like cryotherapy, compression, manual therapy, and a tailored exercise regimen were used. The patient's outcomes showed significant improvements post-rehabilitation, emphasizing the importance of structured physiotherapy interventions in recovery and functional restoration. The aim of the case report is to highlight the efficacy of a structured physiotherapy intervention protocol in facilitating recovery and functional restoration for patients with knee dislocation and multiligament injury post-surgery. Further research and evidence-based rehabilitation strategies are needed to improve outcomes in similar cases.
