We know the biological evolution of ACL grafts, However, we know less concerning the impact of constraints applied on the ACL graft after surgery, more specifically regarding the compliance of the graft. During the eighties, Noyes F [6] has shown the interest of beginning rehabilitation early in the process after surgery. This was studied as back then, plasters were prescribed to avoid movements of the knee during the first 6 weeks. Today, it is the opposite with day clinic surgery. The patient indeed quickly recovers. Consequently, the rehab and patient recommandations must be done with caution.
