Overview

What Is ACL Reconstruction?

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is one of the key stabilizing ligaments of the knee. When torn — usually during sports — it causes instability, pain, and often requires surgical reconstruction. Dr. Sumit performs arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using your own tissue graft for the most natural, durable result.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Does every ACL tear need surgery?

Not always. Dr. Sumit evaluates your activity level, age, and instability before recommending surgery vs. conservative management.

What graft is used?

Usually hamstring or patellar tendon from your own body — called autograft — for the best outcomes.

When can I play sports again?

Most athletes return to sport by 6–9 months with a proper rehabilitation program.

Can I re-tear after surgery?

Re-tear risk is low (5–10%) with proper rehabilitation and return-to-sport protocols.
