What is PCL Surgery?
When is PCL Surgery Needed?
Your doctor may recommend PCL surgery if:
👉 You have a complete PCL tear causing knee instability
👉 There is associated damage to other ligaments (multi-ligament injury)
👉 Your knee frequently gives way or feels unstable
👉 Conservative treatments (bracing, physiotherapy) have failed
👉 You want to return to sports or physically demanding work
How is PCL Surgery Done?
Usually performed arthroscopically (keyhole surgery)
The torn PCL is reconstructed using a tissue graft (commonly from your own hamstring tendon or a donor graft)
The graft is fixed securely to restore normal knee function
Benefits of PCL Surgery

✅ Reduces the risk of further joint damage
