EnglishAfter anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, one frequent complication is the restriction of the range of motion and loss of extension. In addition to the presence of adhesions in the suprapatellar pouch, it is possible to detect two different pathological findings in the intercondylar notch: a misplacement of graft causing an intercondylar impingement, or the presence of hypertrophic tissue originating from the graft that blocks the last degrees of extension, causing an "anterior impingement." We reviewed 18 consecutive cases treated by arthroscopic release. All patients had knee range-of-motion restriction after an ACL procedure. The follow-up at 1 and at 6 months shows that good results have been obtained in cases of anterior impingement, whereas in cases of intercondylar impingement a restricted range of motion, especially of flexion, did remain. In all cases, after arthroscopic treatment the postoperative extension was between 5 and 10-degrees, but this deficit regressed after 6 months in 12 patients, whereas a dropout case was necessary in the remaining 6 patients.
