Abstract
A cyclops lesion is a localized form of anterior arthrofibrosis and is a common complication following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. It manifests as a nodular mass of fibrous tissue that develops at the graft site in the anterior part of the knee, typically near the tibial tunnel. This lesion can hinder full knee extension, resulting in a "loss of extension" or creating a mechanical block that limits the range of motion. Studies indicate that cyclops lesions have a prevalence of 25% in patients who have undergone ACL reconstruction.
