ACL tear is commonly witnessed in players related to soccer, football, cricket, basketball etc where sudden jumping, landing and other such body movements are required.

ACL Tear Surgery In Delhi

Diagnosis of a Torn ACL

The orthopedic doctor will begin the diagnosis with a physical examination to check the swelling in the knee. The ACL tear doctor will also recommend diagnostic tests like X-rays, MRI scans and arthroscopy for a detailed and thorough diagnosis and to rule out any fractures. Additionally, your ACL tear doctor may also perform the Lachman’s test and a pivot to check if the ACL is still intact or to assess ACL tears.

ACL Reconstruction Surgery

The surgery to repair a torn ACL is known as ACL reconstruction. Pristyn Care’s ACL tear surgeons in Delhi perform the surgery with the minimally invasive arthroscopic approach. During the arthroscopic ACL tear surgery in Delhi, the surgeon will make small incisions around the knee, usually 2 or 3 instead of one large incision used in the open surgery.

Most ACL tear surgeons in Delhi use arthroscopic approach to perform ACL tear surgery rather than open surgery because-

  • It is easy to view and access the knee structures.
  • Uses smaller incisions instead of one long incision.
  • It can be performed at the same time as the diagnostic arthroscopy.
  • It involves fewer risks and promotes faster recovery.

What Does Rehabilitation For ACL Injury For Athletes Entail?

Rehabilitation for ACL injuries in athletes typically requires a longer period, lasting around 9-12 months, to ensure joint stability, strength, and flexibility, reducing the risk of re-injury. The process involves several phases: initially regaining strength and flexibility (3-4 months), followed by agility drills (4-6 months), jumping exercises (5-8 months), and sports-specific training (6-9 months). Full participation in sports usually resumes 9-12 months post-surgery, focusing on restoring skills and preventing re-injury.

When is it safe to return to sport after ACL tear surgery?

How long does it take to recover from ACL surgery?

The patient can walk the very next day after ACL surgery. Full recovery along with physiotherapy will take 2-3 months post ACL surgery in Delhi.

When can I drive after ACL reconstruction?

Can an ACL tear heal on its own?

Partial ACL tear or a sprained ACL can heal with the use of physiotherapy, RICE treatment, rest and pain medication (to manage pain). A complete ACL tear cannot heal on its own as there is no blood supply to the injured ligament. Surgical reconstruction or repair is usually required for a completely torn ACL.

What is the success rate of ACL repair?

ACL reconstruction has been a successful procedure, with satisfactory outcomes in 75%- 97% of patients.

What factors can affect ACL reconstruction surgery cost?

The average cost of ACL reconstruction surgery includes the costs of hospitalisation and postoperative care. However, the cost of arthroscopic ACL surgery may change, depending on factors such as-

  • General fee of hospital and surgeon
  • The city where you need to undergo the procedure
  • Type of anesthesia administered
  • Comorbidities such as diabetes, liver or lung disease, etc
  • Your medical history
  • Underlying condition or disease for which surgery is chosen

To know more about the cost of ACL reconstruction surgery or to meet the best knee surgeons for ACL reconstruction in Delhi, give us a call.

What will happen after your ACL reconstruction?

The rehabilitation program begins immediately after the surgery. A physiotherapist will teach you some exercises that will help strengthen your leg and the operated knee. You will also be given some instructions by your surgeon for a proper recovery. These instructions involve ample rest, avoiding sports activities for 4 to 6 months after the surgery, regularly attending the follow-up appointments, and diligently following through with the physiotherapy plan.

For how long would I need to use crutches after an ACL reconstruction surgery?

Crutches are used to provide additional support while walking and standing and should be used according to one’s requirement. However, in most cases, patients can walk and stand without support within a week.
