Keyhole surgery to rebuild a torn anterior cruciate ligament and restore knee stability.
ACL reconstruction replaces a torn ligament with a graft, usually taken from your own hamstring or patellar tendon, using arthroscopic (keyhole) surgery.
It is a short procedure with a quick discharge, followed by a structured physiotherapy programme.
Active people with a torn ACL and a knee that gives way.
Walking with crutches immediately; return to sport usually after 6–9 months of rehab.
