Sixty-two per cent of patients who had ACL surgery returned to their previous level of sport at 5 years after ACL reconstruction, and the subgroups that did not return to sport because of fear of re-injury and because of an unstable knee found that the difference in knee outcome scores between these 3 groups were statistically significant. The ACL rehabilitation plan has 9 Phases: Time frames vary among different sports. The relatively low rate of return to competitive sport despite the high rates of successful outcome in terms of knee impairment-based function suggests that other factors such as psychological factors may be contributing to return-to-sport outcomes.
