ACL surgery

What is ACL Surgery?

ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) surgery is a procedure to repair or reconstruct the torn ACL — one of the key ligaments that helps stabilize your knee joint. ACL injuries are common among athletes and individuals who experience sudden stops, twists, or changes in direction. The surgery aims to restore knee strength, stability, and function, helping you return to your daily activities or sports.

When is ACL Surgery Needed?

Your doctor may recommend ACL surgery if:

  • You have a complete ACL tear that causes knee instability

  • You experience repeated knee giving way during activity

  • You want to return to high-demand sports or work

  • Other knee structures (meniscus, cartilage) are injured along with the ACL

Types of ACL Surgery

👉 ACL Reconstruction: The torn ligament is replaced using a tissue graft (commonly from your own hamstring, patellar tendon, or a donor).
👉 ACL Repair (rare cases): Suitable for certain types of ACL tears where the ligament can be reattached.

Benefits of ACL Surgery

✅ Restores knee stability
✅ Reduces the risk of further knee damage
✅ Improves confidence in walking, running, and sports
✅ Helps prevent future meniscus or cartilage injury
