Knee Ligament Reconstruction, including ACL

Knee ligament anatomy including the ACL

Anatomical reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and associated knee ligaments after rupture or multi-ligament injury. The goal is a stable, proprioceptive knee for daily function, prayer, work, and return to sport when appropriate.

Who it is for

  • • ACL rupture with giving-way during cutting, pivoting, or landing
  • • PCL or combined ligament injury
  • • Recurrent instability after a previous knee sports injury
  • • Patients needing a structured return-to-play plan

Surgical approach

  • • Anatomical ACL reconstruction with modern fixation
  • • Addressing ramp lesions, meniscal roots, and associated ligament injury in the same sitting when indicated
  • • Graft choice discussed according to age, sport, and tissue quality
  • • Early protected motion with a criterion-based rehabilitation plan

Recovery

  • • Brace and crutches protocols vary by reconstruction type
  • • Running and pivoting sport only after strength and hop testing
  • • Shared plan with physiotherapy and, for professionals, team medical staff
