ACL Surgery Overview
ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) surgical treatment is a technique aimed at reconstructing or repairing the ACL ligament inside the knee. This surgical procedure is usually achieved to restore stability, function, and integrity to the knee joint after ACL injury, including tears or ruptures. It addresses ligament defects, complements knee stability, helps in restoration of functionality and decreases the postoperative challenges.
Types of ACL Surgery:
- Open Surgery: Involves a larger incision to access and restore the ACL, commonly performed in complex cases.
- Arthroscopic ACL Repair Surgery: Is a minimally invasive technique that uses small incisions and specialised instruments to reconstruct, resulting in shorter ACL surgery recovery times and reduced postoperative pain.
- Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction Surgery: Involves replacing the torn ACL with a graft, either from the affected person’s very own body (autograft) or a donor (allograft).

| Procedure Duration | 1 to 2 hours |
| Recovery Duration | Several weeks |
ACL Surgery: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care
Preparation: Before ACL tear surgery, patients undergo a thorough assessment which involves thorough physical examination and imaging studies (MRI) to assess the extent and severity of the ACL injury surgery.
During the surgery: The surgeon removes the damaged ACL and replaces it with a graft, which is a piece of tendon from another part of the body or from a donor. The graft is attached to the bone with screws or other devices under appropriate anaesthesia.
Duration: The duration of an ACL surgical procedure usually ranges from 1 to 2 hours, depending on the complexity of the damage and type of surgical technique chosen.
Recovery: Physiotherapy after ACL surgery is initiated 7 to 14 days after surgery to restore range of motion and function while minimising the risk of future injuries.

FAQ's
Can an ACL tear heal without surgery?
Yes, in some cases, especially with partial tears or low-demand lifestyles, the ACL tear can heal with conservative treatment such as physical therapy. A sports-related injury that involves a complete tear requires a thorough medical examination followed by appropriate surgical intervention.
Is ACL surgery painful?
An ACL repair and reconstruction procedure is done under proper anaesthesia for a pain-free surgery. Pain and discomfort during the recovery period is a common symptom that can be addressed by adequate rest and pain relief measures.
How soon can you walk after ACL surgery?
Any activity that involves leg movement requires support, which can be provided by using crutches or a brace to support the knee. The exact time frame of recovery completely depends on the individual’s healing capacity.
Is ACL surgery a major procedure?
Yes, ACL surgery is considered a major orthopaedic procedure that involves reconstructing or repairing the torn ligament, usually through arthroscopic surgery. While advancements have made it minimally invasive compared to traditional open surgery, it still requires anaesthesia and a period of rehabilitation.
How long is it recommended to wear a brace after ACL surgery?
The recommended duration for wearing a brace depends on the surgeon’s advice. Typically, ranges from few weeks to months post-surgery to provide stability and protection, creating an optimal healing environment.
When is ACL surgery necessary?
ACL surgery is often required when there is a complete tear of the ligament, particularly in active individuals who wish to return to sports or physical activities. In cases involving partial tears or unstable knee joint mobility, surgical intervention may also be necessary to prevent further damage.
Can I sleep sideways after ACL surgery?
It’s generally recommended to sleep on your back with the leg elevated and supported by pillows to reduce swelling and promote good blood supply to the operated portion of the ligament. Sleeping sideways may put pressure on the knee and hinder the recovery process.
How long does it take to recover from an ACL surgery?
Recovery from ACL surgery can take several months to a year, depending on various factors such as the individual’s age, extent of injury, and adherence to post-surgical instructions. Most people can return to light activities within a few months.
What happens during an ACL surgery?
During ACL surgery, the torn ligament is typically reconstructed using tissue grafts from either the patient’s own body (autograft) or a donor (allograft). The surgery is often performed arthroscopically, where small incisions are made around the knee and a tiny camera and surgical instruments are inserted to perform the procedure.
Is ACL surgery safe?
While all surgeries carry some level of risk, ACL surgery is generally considered safe when performed by an expert orthopaedic surgeon supported by advanced medical infrastructure. Complications such as infection, blood clots, or graft failure are possible but rare.
