Yоur pаtient is а 25 y/о recreаtiоnal hockey goalie who was playing in a men’s league game when he made a save as an opposing player collided into the anterior-medial aspect of his knee and forcing his R knee into hyperextension.  He felt a “pop” and had immediate pain and swelling in the knee.  He went to the ER, where radiographs were obtained and were negative for fx.  He was evaluated by an orthopedist, had MRI (results pending) and was referred to physical therapy.  One week after his injury, he has a primary complaint of 5/10 pain with walking, stairs, and bending.  He also reports intermittent perception of instability during pivoting movements.  Gait pattern is consistent with knee hyperextension thrust (“quadriceps avoidance pattern’) during loading response.  He lacks 15* of active ROM into both flexion and extension as compared to the L side.  Decreased tone and muscle activation was noted with quadriceps setting on the R, and SLR revealed a 10* extension lag.  Anterior-lateral knee pain with a step-down test was reproduced at 30-40** of knee flexion.  R quadriceps maximum voluntary isometric contraction was 900 N as compared to 1200 N on the L.  (The R was 75% of the L)  The dial test, Posterior sag, and posterior drawer test at 90*were all + on the R.  The Lachman’s test, and varus stress test at 30* knee flexion were negative on the R. Trace effusion was noted inferior and lateral to the patella on the R.  The patient’s Knee Outcome Survey was 57% and his LEFS score was 60%. Upon integrating the data from the initial evaluation, your hypothesis about the patient’s problem would be:
