  1. Hello All,

    No one wants to respond in sci.med.ortho, so I'll ask here.

    After a sports injury in July 1991, I had ACL reconstruction
    using auto pateller tendon graft. Everything went well and I
    was back to work in four months (PM/FF).

    For the last 6 months or so I have been experiencing some
    "feelings" of instability, but have never fallen. Also, I
    have had some none weight bearing dislocations. By this I
    mean if I sit on the floor and have my legs crossed in JUST
    the right way and then straighten out, I get this POP and
    serious pain.

    Well, I am wondering if my ACL recon has stretched?

    Thanks in advance.
