PROCEDURE PROFILE

ACL Reconstruction

Replacing a torn Anterior Cruciate Ligament to restore complete knee pivoting stability.

An ACL tear is a common sports injury causing knee instability and locking. Dr. Sai Dinesh performs anatomical ACL reconstruction using advanced autografts (hamstring or patellar tendon) secured with bio-absorbable screws. This keyhole procedure ensures high graft integration rates and an optimal return-to-sport path.

Procedure Advantages

ACL Reconstruction is the gold standard for restoring high-level physical performance:

  • ✔ Restored Joint Stability: Eliminates knee buckling and giving-way sensations.
  • ✔ Cartilage Protection: Prevents secondary meniscus tears and delays degenerative arthritis.
  • ✔ Outpatient Recovery: Advanced surgical planning lets patients return home on the same day.
