ACL Tear & Reconstruction

Restoring Knee Stability & Mobility with Advanced Surgery

What is an ACL Tear?

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is one of the key ligaments that stabilize the knee joint. An ACL tear occurs when this ligament is stretched beyond its limits or completely ruptured, leading to pain, swelling, and instability in the knee.

This injury is common in athletes involved in sports that require sudden stops, pivots, or changes in direction, such as football, basketball, and skiing.

Diagnosis of an ACL Tear

  • Lachman Test & Pivot Shift Test
  • X-ray
  • MRI Scan

Treatment Options for an ACL Tear

Non-Surgical Treatment (For Partial Tears & Low-Activity Patients)
  • Pain Management – Anti-inflammatory medications to reduce pain & swelling.
  • Bracing – Provides stability during movement.
  • Physical Therapy – Strengthens the surrounding muscles to support the knee.
ACL Reconstruction Surgery (For Complete Tears & Active Individuals)
  • Autograft (Patient's Own Tissue) – Uses a tendon from the hamstring, patellar, or quadriceps.
  • Allograft (Donor Tissue) – Suitable for revision surgeries or older patients.
  • Minimally Invasive Arthroscopic Surgery – Small incisions for quicker recovery and minimal scarring.
  • Strong Fixation Techniques – Ensures long-term knee stability and function.
ACL Reconstruction Surgery – Step by Step
  • Pre-Surgery Preparation: Medical evaluation, imaging tests (MRI/X-ray), and anesthesia administration.
  • Arthroscopic Knee Assessment: A small camera is inserted to examine the knee damage.
  • Graft Harvesting: A tendon is taken from the patient's body or a donor.
  • Graft Placement & Fixation: The new ligament is positioned and secured with screws or fixation devices.
  • Incision Closure & Recovery: The knee is stabilized, and rehabilitation begins.
Recovery & Rehabilitation After ACL Surgery
  • Walking with support within 1-2 days
  • Return to daily activities in 4-6 weeks
  • Resume sports in 6-9 months (with proper rehab)
  • Avoid high-impact activities until complete recovery
