Tec Orthopedics offers advanced ACL reconstruction surgery to help you regain pain-free mobility and get back to doing the activities you love.
About ACL Reconstruction
ACL reconstruction is a surgical procedure designed to repair or replace a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the knee. The ACL is crucial for knee stability and function, especially during activities that involve sudden changes in direction.
Common conditions treated with ACL reconstruction surgery include:
Complete or partial tears of the ACL can cause significant instability and pain.
Feeling of the knee giving way, particularly during sports or physical activities.
Persistent pain and recurrent swelling that limit mobility and function.
Symptoms indicating the need for ACL reconstruction surgery can include:
Chronic pain that does not respond to conservative treatments like rest, physical therapy, or medications.
The sensation of the knee giving way during movement, especially during sports or physical activities.
Difficulty in performing daily activities or engaging in sports due to knee instability.
Knee Arthroscopy Surgery
Benefits of Knee Arthroscopy Surgery
Knee arthroscopy offers numerous advantages, helping you return to an active lifestyle. Here’s how it can benefit you:
The primary benefit is the restoration of knee stability, allowing you to return to physical activities with confidence.
By addressing the underlying issue, ACL reconstruction can significantly reduce or eliminate knee pain.
The procedure can restore normal joint mechanics, enabling you to engage in daily activities and sports without limitations.
As a minimally invasive procedure, arthroscopy involves smaller incisions, leading to faster recovery times and less scarring.
ACL Reconstruction Procedure
Our experienced surgeons employ advanced techniques to perform ACL reconstruction effectively. Here’s a simplified breakdown of the procedure:
You will receive regional or general anesthesia to ensure you are comfortable during the procedure.
The surgeon will make small incisions around the knee to insert surgical instruments and a camera.
A tendon graft (from your own body or a donor) is prepared to replace the torn ACL.
The graft is positioned and secured in the knee using specialized hardware.
After securing the graft, the surgeon will close the incisions with sutures or surgical tape.
ACL Reconstruction Recovery
Recovery from ACL reconstruction is generally swift and straightforward. Our team will provide you with detailed post-operative instructions to ensure a smooth recovery. Here’s what you can expect:
Mild discomfort or soreness post-surgery can be managed with prescribed pain medications.
Your knee will be bandaged to protect the surgical site. Keeping the area dry and clean is essential.
Rehabilitation exercises may be recommended to restore strength and flexibility to the knee joint.
Most patients can resume light activities within a few days. Gradual return to normal routines and exercise will be guided by your surgeon. Recovery times vary based on the individual and the complexity of the surgery.
