A torn anterior cruciate ligament infers that the connecting tissue between the thigh and shin bone has experienced a tear, and will result in an extended range of motion of the knee usually called hyperextension.

  • The thighbone and shin bone are held together at the knee by the tissue called the anterior cruciate ligament.

  • This means that the range of motion of the knee is regulated by the anterior cruciate ligament, enabling us to balance these bones at the knee point.

  • Damage to this holding tissue will mean that the thigh and shin bone are no longer in place, causing an unbalanced and extended range of motion at the knee.

  • Major damage to the anterior cruciate ligament will usually require a surgery.

Therefore, the range of motion of the knee becomes extended once the a tear occurs to the anterior cruciate ligament.
