Typical symptoms
- • Giving way during cutting, pivoting, or landing
- • Swelling after injury and difficulty fully straightening the knee
- • Locking or catching from a meniscal tear
- • Ongoing instability after a previous sports injury
ACL rupture, meniscal tears, ramp lesions, and multi-ligament injury are treated with anatomical arthroscopic reconstruction and repair-first meniscal surgery. The goal is a stable, proprioceptive knee for sport and daily prayer or work demands.
How we evaluate
- • Clinical ligament testing and assessment of alignment
- • MRI for ACL/PCL, meniscus, and cartilage
- • Discussion of graft choice and return-to-sport criteria
