Right ACL Tear Treated with Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction | Balanku Hospital
Right ACL Tear Successfully Treated with Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction
Advanced Knee Ligament Care at Balanku Hospital
Injuries to the knee can significantly impact daily life, mobility, and confidence—especially when the Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is involved. The ACL is a crucial ligament responsible for knee stability during walking, running, and sudden movements.
At Balanku Hospital, we provide advanced orthopedic care to help patients regain knee strength and return to an active lifestyle. We are pleased to share the successful treatment and recovery of Mr. Akshay, who presented with a right ACL tear.
Understanding the Condition
Mr. Akshay complained of:
-
Persistent knee pain
-
Instability and episodes of “giving way”
-
Difficulty in walking and physical activities
Clinical examination and imaging confirmed a complete tear of the right ACL, a common injury often caused by sports activities, sudden twisting movements, or trauma.
ACL Surgery at Balanku Hospital
Considering the severity of symptoms and functional limitation, our orthopedic team recommended Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction as the most effective treatment to restore knee stability and prevent further joint damage.
Surgical Treatment Performed
Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction with Hamstring Graft
Mr. Akshay underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using a hamstring tendon graft, a minimally invasive technique that offers excellent strength and long-term outcomes.
Key advantages of this approach include:
-
Small incisions and minimal tissue damage
-
Reduced postoperative pain
-
Faster recovery and rehabilitation
-
Strong and durable ligament reconstruction
The torn ACL was replaced with a hamstring graft and securely fixed using advanced surgical devices under arthroscopic guidance.
