Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction

Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction

Arthroscopic ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) Reconstruction is a surgical procedure performed by Dr. Ankur Agrawal, a highly skilled orthopedic surgeon, to repair a torn ACL in the knee joint. This minimally invasive technique utilizes an arthroscope, a small camera inserted through tiny incisions, allowing for a clear view of the knee’s interior without the need for large surgical openings.

During the procedure, Dr. Ankur Agrawal uses specialized instruments to remove the damaged ACL and replace it with a graft, typically sourced from the patient’s own tissue or from a donor. This graft serves as a new ligament, providing stability and support to the knee joint.

Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction offers several benefits, including reduced post-operative pain, faster recovery times, and improved joint function compared to traditional open surgery. Dr. Ankur Agrawal’s expertise ensures precise graft placement and optimal outcomes for each patient.

Following surgery, Dr. Ankur Agrawal provides comprehensive post-operative care, including rehabilitation exercises and follow-up appointments to monitor progress and address any concerns. With Dr. Ankur Agrawal’s skill and dedication, patients can regain strength, mobility, and confidence in their knee joint, allowing them to return to their active lifestyles with reduced risk of re-injury.

ACL

Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure to replace a torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) in the knee. A small camera (arthroscope) and surgical tools are inserted through tiny incisions to reconstruct the ligament using a graft (often from the patient's own tendon or a donor).
Recovery can take 6 to 9 months, depending on the individual's age, health, and physical therapy. Athletes often require 9 to 12 months before safely returning to sports. A well-structured rehabilitation program is essential for full recovery.
Most patients can start walking with crutches the same or next day after surgery. Full weight-bearing may take 1 to 2 weeks, and walking without support depends on muscle strength and recovery. Physical therapy helps speed up this process.
