ACL Reconstruction
ACL reconstruction is performed when the anterior cruciate ligament is torn, leading to knee instability, giving-way episodes, and difficulty returning to sports.
Surgery restores stability using a graft and structured rehabilitation. Untreated ACL injuries can increase the risk of cartilage damage and arthritis later.
ACL stability is also important when considering procedures like UKR.
