ACL Reconstruction Treatment in India

About ACL Reconstruction

ACL reconstruction repairs a torn anterior cruciate ligament, a key stabilizing ligament in the knee, using a graft to restore stability and function. It is commonly needed after sports injuries and allows patients to return to active lifestyles, including sports, with a stable and well-functioning knee.

Symptoms to Watch For

  • A popping sensation at the time of injury
  • Knee swelling and pain
  • Instability or the knee "giving way"
  • Loss of full range of motion
  • Difficulty bearing weight on the affected leg

When You Should Seek Treatment

ACL reconstruction is recommended for active individuals with a confirmed ACL tear who experience instability during daily activities or sports, or when the knee remains unstable despite physiotherapy. MRI confirms the diagnosis and extent of injury.

How the Treatment Works

  • Performed under general or spinal anesthesia using arthroscopic (keyhole) technique
  • A graft, often from the patient's own tendon, is used to reconstruct the ligament
  • The graft is secured in place using screws or fixation devices
  • Surgery duration is typically 1-1.5 hours

Recovery & Hospital Stay

  • Often day-care or 1-night hospital stay
  • Structured physical therapy begins within days
  • Most patients return to daily activities within 4-6 weeks
  • Return to sports typically after 6-9 months with rehabilitation
  • Bracing may be used during early recovery
