What Is ACL Reconstruction Surgery?
ACL reconstruction surgery through arthroscopy is an orthopedic procedure done on the knees when the anterior cruciate ligament is injured. In this operation, the damaged ligament is cut off while a new ligament from another tissue source is placed for stabilization of the knee.
Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction is a surgery that employs minimally invasive arthroscopy procedures and, hence, involves making small incisions in the skin. It also uses a mini camera and other surgical devices for the purpose of operating on the knee.
Bones Cure is an orthopedic treatment center offering arthroscopic surgery to assist our patients in getting back their stable knee functionality. ACL injuries are among the most common injuries caused by sports. They often occur during football, cricket, basketball, and even running sports. The best solution in case of an ACL injury is a successful reconstruction surgery.
