Abstract: We present the medical history of an Olympic wrestler who suffered a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament. Operative reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament was performed using an autogenous semitendinosus-gracilis-tendon -transplant. The operation was followed by an aggressive rehabilitation program set up to meet the individual requirements. Six months later the athlete was able to compete at the 2004 Olympic games in Athens .
