Descripción
Sumario:Cyclops is a fibrous nodule on the tibial side of the knee and it is one of the common complications that arises after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery that causes loss of knee extension. In this literature, we have discussed about a young gentleman who presented with unresolved swelling and inability to extend knee joint fully 1 year after ACL reconstruction surgery. Cyclops lesion was identified by clinical examination and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). An arthroscopic excision of the cyclops lesion was successfully done on this patient which resulted in a resolution of swelling and progressive improvement of knee extension.
