About the offer

Arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a specialized, minimally invasive surgical procedure that restores knee stability and function after an ACL tear. This advanced procedure is performed at the Regenerative Therapy Center Manchester, ensuring patients benefit from cutting-edge techniques and a faster recovery. ACL reconstruction uses arthroscopy, a minimally invasive technique in which a small camera (arthroscope) is inserted into the knee through tiny incisions. This lets surgeons visualize the knee's internal structures with high precision. During the procedure, surgeons remove the damaged ACL and replace it with a graft, typically harvested from the patient’s hamstring or patellar tendon, or sometimes from a donor. This method offers several advantages, including less pain, less scarring, and shorter recovery times than traditional open surgery. The procedure typically lasts about 1-2 hours, and most patients can return home on the same day, making it a convenient option for those with busy schedules. Patients follow a tailored post-surgery rehabilitation program to restore knee strength and mobility. Physical therapy is crucial and begins shortly after surgery.

FAQ

What is ACL reconstruction?

In ACL reconstruction, surgeons replace the torn ligament with a graft, often from the patient's own body (such as the patellar tendon or hamstring) or from a donor (an allograft).

How long does it take to recover from arthroscopic ACL reconstruction?

You may resume most regular activities within several weeks, but it will take several months to fully regain knee function. Complete recovery from strenuous activities or sports may take 6 months to a year.

What is an alternative to ACL reconstruction?

ACL tears, especially common in athletes and more frequent in women, often lead to surgical recommendations. Stem cell therapy is an emerging alternative, offering the potential for faster recovery and better outcomes without the risks of surgery.
