Rehab Diary for Patellar Tendon Lengthening Surgery - Month 1
Submitted by skibum9 on January 3, 2008 - 2:12am.Below is a consolidation of personal e-mails and KneeGuru posts that were made during my rehab after reconstruction of my patellar tendon by Dr. Noyes. I was suffering from severe arthrofibrosis and severe patella baja with a very short patellar tendon. Prior to the surgery I was in severe, constant pain and limited flexion (105 degrees with overpressure and 80 to 90 actively). I thought it would be beneficial to compile them all in one place so that others who are battling a painful rehabilitation can share my ups, downs, frustration, and ultimate success.
