title: [Early results of patient rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction].
abstract: In the Orthopedic Department of the Upper-Silesian Rehabilitation Center "Repty" in Ustroń 54 patients have been rehabilitated after a plasty of the anterior cruciate ligament and transplantation of 1/3 middle part of the patellar ligament with two osseous blocks at each end. The rehabilitation was conducted according to the scheme worked out in our department. The results of the rehabilitation were assessed by the objective and subjective methods (for example the goniometric pendulum test, the modified Lysholm's scale, the WAS questionnaire). The patients had been divided randomly into two comparative study groups that were subject to exactly the same rehabilitation scheme, but one of the group was additionally provided with the impulsive magnetic field therapy. A satisfactory improvement was observed in both groups of patients. There was no significant advantage of additional treatment with the impulsive magnetic field.
