Patient H&P 3 months s/p stem cell ACL and MCL repair

This video is a 3-month post-operative testimonial featuring Dr. Don Buford and his 15-year-old patient, Kevin.

Kevin underwent an open MCL repair using two suture anchors for a grade three tear, combined with a bone marrow concentrate stem cell procedure to treat his ACL tear. At three months post-op, Kevin demonstrates excellent progress with near-equal knee flexion compared to his uninjured side, full extension, and strong straight leg lifts. Dr. Buford performs a physical examination, noting that Kevin's knee stability matches his uninjured leg. While twisting and pivoting sports are still restricted, Kevin is cleared to begin straight-line running and lifting weights.
