This article discusses the main ideas surrounding joint restoration and muscle strengthening following an isolated PCL repair based on biomechanical principles of the PCL and evolution of the neoligament. In rehabilitation one must take into account the specificities of this surgery and consider the protection of the transplant and its attachment sites, protection of the donor site, restoring joint mobility and muscle strength but also educating the patient to take care of the new ligament in the first few months post op.
