How It Works
The process begins with a detailed orthopaedic assessment, including MRI scans and clinical tests to understand the extent of ligament damage. Based on the findings, surgeons prepare an individualised treatment plan that may include ACL or combined ACL/PCL reconstruction. Arthroscopic, minimally invasive techniques access the knee joint through small incisions, minimising tissue trauma and promoting faster recovery.
During the procedure, the torn ligament is replaced with a tendon graft, which may be taken from the patient or a suitable donor. Surgeons ensure the graft is positioned correctly and verify joint stability and tension for optimal outcomes.
After surgery, patients are monitored in the recovery area before guided mobilisation begins. Early physiotherapy plays a key role in restoring strength, stability, and range of motion. Rehabilitation plans are personalised to match lifestyle, age, and activity demands. Regular follow-up visits assess graft healing and support progression to advanced exercises.
Ongoing reviews and structured rehabilitation help patients achieve steady improvement in knee function. This coordinated approach ensures a smooth experience from diagnosis to complete recovery.

What to Expect
Consultation and diagnosis
Clinical evaluation and imaging help confirm ligament injury and determine whether ACL Reconstruction Surgery is required.
Pre-operative preparation
Medication review, fitness assessment, and graft selection prepare the patient for surgery.
Surgery day
The minimally invasive arthroscopic procedure is performed with precise graft placement and stability checks.
Recovery room monitoring
Vital signs and knee movement are monitored to ensure safe recovery.
Hospital stay
Patients usually have a short stay due to the minimally invasive approach.
Physical therapy
Early mobilisation begins with gentle exercises to restore motion and reduce stiffness.
Follow-up appointments
Progress is reviewed regularly after ACL and PCL reconstruction procedures, and the plan is adjusted as healing improves.
Long-term recovery
Strength training, balance exercises, and sports-specific conditioning guide the patient back to an active life.

Frequently Asked Questions
Patients with ligament tears, knee instability, or difficulty with turning and pivoting movements may require anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Persistent pain and repeated episodes of the joint giving way also indicate the need for surgical intervention.
ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) reconstruction treats isolated ligament tears. Whereas, combined ACL/PCL procedures manage severe injuries affecting both ligaments. It helps restore knee stability, function, and overall joint strength.
Early movement begins immediately after ACL surgery, and structured physiotherapy continues for several months. Most patients return to sports or intense physical activity after 6–9 months, depending on strength and stability.
Graft selection depends on factors such as age, activity level, knee anatomy, and the surgeon’s preference. Options include the patient’s own tendon or a donor graft. Your orthopaedic team will recommend the most suitable choice for long-term stability.
Yes. Surgeons perform ACL reconstruction using arthroscopic techniques through small incisions. This approach reduces pain, promotes faster healing, and improves cosmetic outcomes. Manipal Hospitals offers advanced ACL reconstruction surgery in India, specialising in the treatment of knee ligament injuries.
