Expert Insights on ACL Reconstruction for Sports Injuries by Dr. Anand Agroya

ACL reconstruction is a surgical procedure aimed at repairing a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), a critical ligament in the knee that often sustains injury during sports activities. Commonly seen in athletes, ACL injuries can lead to instability and a higher risk of further damage if left untreated. The reconstruction process typically involves using a graft to replace the damaged ligament, allowing for a more stable knee joint. Following surgery, a comprehensive rehabilitation program is essential for restoring strength, flexibility, and function. With proper care and rehabilitation, athletes can return to their sport, often stronger and more resilient than before.
