The time of return to sport following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a commonly discussed topic within clinical settings and the sports medicine literature. Emerging science has demonstrated protective effects of delaying the time of sport clearance on athlete reinjury. Though a single time cutoff is unlikely to be applicable for all athletes, large inconsistencies in the time of return to sport clearance are present in both the literature and within prescribed clinical protocols. A multitude of patient factors, such as perceived function, objective function, confidence, post-operative goals, among others, are vital for how athletes are progressed and released for sport participation. This Current Opinion article is constructed to discuss the time to return to sport after ACL reconstruction-factors that may influence timing decisions, how time is assessed within the scientific literature-and to promote discussion on this common topic within the sports medicine and athletic communities. The aim of the article is not to establish defined clinical time cutoffs for this population.
前交叉韧带（ACL）重建术后恢复运动的时间是临床环境和运动医学文献中经常讨论的话题。新兴科学已经证明，推迟运动许可时间对运动员再次受伤具有保护作用。尽管单一的时间节点不太可能适用于所有运动员，但在文献和规定的临床方案中，恢复运动许可的时间存在很大差异。许多患者因素，如感知功能、客观功能、信心、术后目标等，对于运动员如何逐步恢复并获得运动参与许可至关重要。这篇“当前观点”文章旨在讨论ACL重建术后恢复运动的时间——可能影响时间决策的因素、科学文献中如何评估时间——并促进运动医学和体育界对这一常见话题的讨论。本文的目的不是为该人群确定明确的临床时间节点。
