Frequently Asked Questions

ACL reconstruction is a surgical procedure aimed at repairing a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the knee. It involves replacing the damaged ligament with a graft, usually obtained from the patient's tissue or a donor.

ACL reconstruction is necessary to restore stability and function to the knee following an ACL tear. Without surgery, the knee may remain unstable, making it difficult to perform physical activities and increasing the risk of further damage.

ACL reconstruction is a relatively common procedure, especially among individuals who engage in sports or activities that involve pivoting, jumping, or rapid changes in direction. It is estimated that thousands of ACL reconstructions are performed each year.

An ACL tear can occur due to sudden stops, changes in direction, twisting motions, or direct blows to the knee. Sports activities like soccer, basketball, skiing, and football are commonly associated with ACL tears.

Symptoms of a torn ACL may include a popping sound or sensation at the time of injury, immediate swelling, severe pain, difficulty bearing weight on the affected leg, knee instability, and limited range of motion.

Candidates for ACL reconstruction are individuals who have experienced a complete ACL tear and desire to regain knee stability and function. A thorough evaluation by an orthopaedic specialist is necessary to determine if surgery is appropriate for each individual case.

ACL reconstruction is typically performed using arthroscopic techniques. Small incisions are made in the knee, and a tiny camera (arthroscope) is used to guide the surgical instruments. The damaged ACL is removed, and a graft is inserted to replace it.

Common graft options for ACL reconstruction include using the patient's tissue (autografts), such as the patellar tendon, hamstring tendon, or quadriceps tendon. Alternatively, allografts sourced from donor tissue can also be used.

Recovery time varies for each individual, but typically it takes several months to fully recover from ACL reconstruction. Physical therapy plays a crucial role in the rehabilitation and restoration of strength, stability, and range of motion in the knee.

With proper rehabilitation and recovery, many individuals can successfully return to sports or physical activities following ACL reconstruction. However, it is important to follow the guidance of your orthopaedic surgeon and physical therapist to minimize the risk of re-injury.

ACL reconstruction can help restore knee stability and reduce the risk of further ACL tears. However, it does not make the knee completely immune to other knee injuries, such as meniscus tears, cartilage damage, or ligament sprains.

Non-surgical alternatives, such as physical therapy and rehabilitation, may be considered for individuals with partial ACL tears or those who have a sedentary lifestyle and do not engage in activities that require knee stability. However, ACL reconstruction is often recommended for active individuals who wish to return to sports or activities involving knee stress.

Like any surgical procedure, ACL reconstruction carries some risks. Potential complications include infection, bleeding, blood clots, graft failure, nerve damage, stiffness, and persistent knee pain. It is important to discuss these risks with your surgeon before undergoing the procedure.

Yes, ACL reconstruction is commonly performed using arthroscopic techniques. This minimally invasive approach allows for smaller incisions, reduced scarring, and faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.

Yes, ACL reconstruction can be done using your own tissue, which is called an autograft. The most commonly used autografts are the patellar tendon, hamstring tendon, or quadriceps tendon.

Yes, ACL reconstruction can also be performed using a cadaver graft, which is called an allograft. Allografts are carefully selected donor tissues that are processed and sterilized to reduce the risk of infection.

The timing of ACL reconstruction can vary depending on several factors, including the extent of the injury, swelling, and the patient's overall health. In general, ACL reconstruction is typically performed after the initial swelling has subsided and there is a full range of motion in the knee.

ACL reconstruction can be performed in older individuals; however, the decision is based on a comprehensive evaluation by an orthopaedic surgeon. Factors such as overall health, activity level, and individual goals will be considered in determining the appropriateness of the procedure.

ACL reconstruction in children is a complex decision and requires careful consideration by an experienced orthopaedic specialist. In certain cases, non-surgical management may be preferred, allowing the child's growth and development to potentially improve knee stability.

In some cases, ACL reconstruction can be combined with procedures to address other knee conditions, such as meniscus tears or cartilage damage. The specific treatment approach will depend on the individual's unique situation and the recommendations of the orthopaedic surgeon.

The success rate of ACL reconstruction is generally high, with many individuals experiencing significant improvement in knee stability and function. The success of the procedure depends on various factors, including the patient's commitment to rehabilitation and adherence to post-operative instructions.

In some cases, ACL reconstruction can be combined with procedures to address other knee conditions, such as meniscus tears or cartilage damage. The specific treatment approach will depend on the individual's unique situation and the recommendations of the orthopaedic surgeon.

Yes, physical therapy is a crucial component of the recovery process after ACL reconstruction. A customized rehabilitation program will be designed to help restore strength, range of motion, and stability to the knee.

The use of a brace after ACL reconstruction varies depending on the surgeon's preference and the patient's specific circumstances. In some cases, a brace may be recommended to provide additional support and stability during the early stages of recovery.

The goal of ACL reconstruction is to restore knee stability. However, in some cases, individuals may experience residual knee laxity or instability following the procedure. This can be due to factors such as graft failure, inadequate rehabilitation, or the presence of other knee injuries.

Complications with the patella are rare but possible after ACL reconstruction. These can include patellar tendonitis, patellar subluxation, or patellar fracture. Your surgeon will take precautions to minimize the risk of such complications.

Pain medication is commonly prescribed after ACL reconstruction to manage post-operative discomfort. The type and duration of pain medication will depend on the individual's pain tolerance and the surgeon's recommendations.

Yes, ACL reconstruction is a common procedure among athletes who wish to resume sports activities requiring knee stability. The rehabilitation process is tailored to each athlete's sport-specific needs and goals.

In certain situations, bilateral ACL reconstruction (surgery on both knees simultaneously) may be recommended, especially if both ACLs are torn or if there is an increased risk of injury to the opposite knee. The decision is made on a case-by-case basis.

The presence of arthritis in the knee does not necessarily exclude an individual from ACL reconstruction. However, the surgeon will consider the severity of the arthritis and how it may impact the overall outcome of the surgery.

ACL reconstruction is aimed at correcting knee instability caused by a torn ACL. The procedure restores stability to the knee joint and helps improve overall knee function.

ACL reconstruction can be performed in individuals with ligament laxity as long as there is sufficient stability in the knee joint. The surgeon will assess the degree of laxity and determine if ACL reconstruction is appropriate.

In some cases, revision ACL reconstruction can be performed if a previous ACL repair surgery has failed. The decision will depend on various factors, including the cause of failure, the condition of the knee, and the patient's overall health.

The presence of other medical conditions, such as diabetes or heart disease, may increase the surgical risk associated with ACL reconstruction. The surgeon will evaluate your overall health and collaborate with other specialists if necessary to ensure the procedure is safe for you.

Yes, ACL reconstruction is intended to improve knee function and stability by restoring the torn ligament and providing support to the knee joint. With proper rehabilitation and adherence to post-operative guidelines, many individuals experience improved knee function and stability following the procedure.
