Introduction: Mucoid degeneration (MD) of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an unusual cause of knee pain and restricted movement, predominantly affecting the middle-aged population. Arthroscopic partial or total debridement of the mucoid ACL is the surgical treatment of choice. However, little is discussed in the literature regarding subsequent knee instability and functional outcomes following complete ACL excision.

However, literature concerning the degree of glenoid and chondrolabral version and clinical outcomes following labral repair is scarce.
Methods: A retrospective cohort study was undertaken among patients with posterior shoulder instability who had undergone arthroscopic isolated posterior labral repair.
A man in his 20s presented with instability of the right knee following an incident of fall from a height. He was clinicoradiologically diagnosed to have an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear for which he underwent ACL reconstruction. Postoperatively, he was started on an accelerated ACL rehabilitation protocol.
