Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Surgery

Sports Health Conditions: Strains

Surgery for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries involves repairing or reconstructing the ACL using a graft, often from another part of your body, to replace the ligament.

ACL surgery is usually done arthroscopically, using small incisions in the knee to insert instruments for surgery.
