Who is an Eligible Candidate for ACL Reconstruction Surgery in India?
ACL reconstruction is recommended for individuals who have sustained a tear or rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), typically due to sports injuries or trauma. Candidates often experience knee instability, difficulty in walking or pivoting, and recurrent episodes of the knee “giving way.” It is particularly advised for active individuals, athletes, or those wishing to return to physically demanding activities. A detailed evaluation including MRI scans, physical examination, and assessment of activity level is conducted before recommending surgery.
Types of ACL Reconstruction Surgery
ACL reconstruction is usually performed using autografts (patient’s own tissue such as hamstring or patellar tendon) or allografts (donor tissue). The choice depends on patient age, activity level, and surgeon preference.
Procedure of ACL Reconstruction Surgery
The procedure is typically performed using minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques under regional or general anesthesia. The damaged ligament is removed and replaced with a graft, which is fixed in place using specialized implants. Over time, the graft integrates with the bone and functions as a new ligament. Rehabilitation is a critical part of recovery to restore strength and stability.
