Yes, the ROM is good. It straightens and bends fine. After the May 2007 microfracture surgery I have a knee scope in Nov 2007. At that time Dr Coummings removed 1 ACL screw and took out the failed graft. He also felt the microfracture was successful and the lesion was covered.

Prior to the microfracture I had very small amounts of pain, in the inner knne area, now it's exteremly painful, but only when weight bearing.
