ACL Revision Surgery
ACL Revision Surgery is a specialist surgery designed to repair an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) that has failed or been weakened and restore stability and function. Using frequently autograft or allograft tissue sources, this complicated surgical method entails replacing the damaged or torn graft with a fresh one. The graft is painstakingly repositioned and fixed by experienced orthopedic surgeons to ensure ideal alignment and tension. For sportsmen and those who want to regain complete knee functionality following a botched initial ACL reconstruction, this surgery is essential. To provide excellent results and allow patients to confidently continue their busy lifestyles, it necessitates accuracy and competence.

ACL Revision Surgery FAQ's
ACL revision surgery is a procedure that corrects a failed or unsatisfactory ACL reconstruction. This involves repairing or replacing the previously reconstructed ACL to restore knee stability and function.
The surgical approach for ACL revision surgery is similar to the initial ACL reconstruction, but it can be more complex due to the presence of hardware, scar tissue, and previous surgical changes. The surgeon typically removes the failed graft, repairs any remaining damage, and replaces it with a new graft.
The recovery process for ACL revision surgery is often more prolonged and challenging than that of the initial ACL reconstruction. It typically involves a longer rehabilitation period and may require more intensive physical therapy.
Graft options for ACL revision surgery are similar to those for primary ACL reconstruction and include autografts and allografts. The choice will depend on the patient’s specific circumstances and the surgeon’s recommendation.
