Concurrent Session 3: Rehabilitation Medicine and Biomechanics

Moderators: Jesse Charlton & Michelle Hall   

Healing ACL Ruptures without Surgery and Implications for Osteoarthritis
Stephanie Filbay

• This presentation will challenge long-held assumptions that anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures have limited healing capacity when managed with rehabilitation, by providing an overview of the latest research in this field.
• The implications of the healing status of the ACL after management with rehabilitation will be explored, including potential implications for osteoarthritis.
• This presentation will also summarize ongoing studies and highlight research gaps that need to be addressed to inform clinical practice.
