Abstract

The purpose of this Case Report was to describe the academic experience in the field of internship at the Clinical School of Physiotherapy at FAMP with a patient who had a complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and complete dislocation of the left knee. A physical therapy evaluation form was carried out and the intervention procedures were drawn up, which used closed kinetic chain exercises, exercises to gain range of motion (ROM), resistance exercises with a load of 2 kg for muscle strengthening, ergometer cycle for improvement from the instability of the knee joint (E), the use of the treadmill to stimulate improvement in the phases of gait, in addition to circuits with obstacles for gait and balance training. The individual underwent 6 physical therapy sessions lasting 50 minutes, twice a week. The results achieved with the physical therapy treatment were: gain in joint mobility, gain in range of motion, gain in muscle strength, improvement in balance and evolution of the phases of gait without the use of an auxiliary device.

Keywords: Injury, Anterior Cruciate Ligament, Posterior Cruciate Ligament, Physiotherapy.
