Knee ligament injuries are common sports injuries that can occur due to a sudden twisting or pivoting motion. If you have suffered a knee ligament injury, you may be a candidate for arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction surgery.

Arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that repairs damaged knee ligaments using a small camera and surgical instruments. This procedure is performed by Dr. Veerendra Mudnoor, a highly skilled and experienced orthopedic surgeon.

Types of Knee Ligament Injuries Treated at Viha Ortho Care
  • Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Tears: The ACL is a major ligament in the knee that helps to stabilize the joint. ACL tears are common sports injuries that can occur due to sudden stopping, pivoting, or jumping.
  • Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Tears: The PCL is another major ligament in the knee that helps to stabilize the joint. PCL tears are less common than ACL tears but can still be very debilitating.
  • Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) Tears: The MCL is a ligament on the inside of the knee that helps to prevent the knee from bending too far inward. MCL tears are often caused by a direct blow to the outside of the knee.
  • Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) Tears: The LCL is a ligament on the outside of the knee that helps to prevent the knee from bending too far outward. LCL tears are less common than MCL tears but can still be very debilitating.
Benefits of Arthroscopic Knee Ligament Reconstruction
  • Minimally Invasive: Arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction is a minimally invasive procedure that requires only small incisions. This results in less pain, scarring, and a shorter recovery time.
  • Faster Recovery: Because arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction is a minimally invasive procedure, patients typically experience a faster recovery time than with traditional open surgery.
  • Less Pain: Arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction is also associated with less pain after surgery.
  • Improved Function: Arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction can help to restore knee function and improve stability.
What to Expect During Arthroscopic Knee Ligament Reconstruction

The arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction procedure typically takes about 1-2 hours. During the procedure, Dr. Veerendra Mudnoor will make small incisions around the knee and insert a small camera and surgical instruments. The camera will allow Dr. Veerendra Mudnoor to see the inside of the knee and repair the damaged ligament.

After the procedure, you will be taken to a recovery room where you will be monitored for several hours. You will then be discharged from the hospital and will be given instructions on how to care for your knee at home.

Recovery from Arthroscopic Knee Ligament Reconstruction

Recovery from arthroscopic knee ligament reconstruction typically takes about 6-8 weeks. During this time, you will need to avoid putting too much weight on your knee. You will also need to do physical therapy to help your knee heal and regain strength.
