ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament), PCL (Posterior Cruciate Ligament), and Meniscus injuries are common knee injuries, often resulting from sports, accidents, or sudden twisting movements. These injuries can cause pain, swelling, instability, and difficulty in performing daily activities. Surgical repair or reconstruction aims to restore knee stability, function, and prevent further joint damage. Modern techniques, often minimally invasive, allow precise repair and faster recovery.

🧑‍⚕️ Who Needs ACL / PCL / Meniscus Repair?

• Patients with torn ACL or PCL causing knee instability
• Individuals with meniscus tears leading to pain, swelling, or locking
• Athletes or active individuals who want to return to sports
• Patients with persistent symptoms despite conservative treatment
• People at risk of further knee degeneration if untreated

⚙️ Procedure Overview

• Performed arthroscopically using small incisions and specialized instruments
• Torn ligaments (ACL/PCL) are reconstructed using grafts from the patient’s own tissue or donor tissue
• Meniscus tears are repaired or partially removed depending on the type and location
• The knee is assessed for stability, alignment, and associated injuries during the procedure
• Local, spinal, or general anesthesia is used based on patient and surgeon preference

🌟 Benefits of ACL / PCL / Meniscus Repair

• Restores knee stability and function
• Reduces pain and swelling in the knee
• Allows return to daily activities and sports
• Minimally invasive technique with smaller incisions
• Lower risk of long-term joint degeneration
• Precise treatment of ligaments and cartilage damage
• Faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery
• Helps prevent further injuries to the knee joint
