Benefits of ACL Surgery & what precautions patients have to take after surgery

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery is a surgical tissue grafting replacement of Anterior Cruciate Ligament, located in the knee to restore its function after injury. The torn ligament can either be removed from the knee or preserved before reconstruction; an arthroscopic procedure (where the graft is passed inside the preserved rupture ligament) before reconstruction, an arthroscopic procedure. ACL repair is also a surgical option. This involves repairing the ACL by re-attaching it, instead of performing a reconstruction. Theoretical advantages of repair include faster surgery and a lack of donor side morbidity. but randomized control trials and long term data regarding re-rupture rates using contemporary surgical techniques are lacking. Many types of grafting options for ACL Reconstruction include Autograft (Employing bone or tissue harvested from the patient's body) . Another graft option is Allograft using bones or tissue from another's body, either from a cadaver or a live donor also Bridge enhance ACL repair (Using bio-engineered bridging injected within patients own blood. Also, an important graft option, that is, synthetic tissue for ACL reconstruction has also been developed, but not relevant data available that shows results of its strength and reliability. ACL Surgery has many benefits that include, ACL reconstruction surgery uses minimally invasive arthroscopic techniques to get the job done with a smaller incision. Also, because of minimal incision-less pain surgery, it is. Also, this surgery requires less time for hospitalization and a speedy recovery overall. ACL Surgery is generally recommended if you are an athlete, especially sports that include jumping, cutting, pivoting etc, and need speedy recovery to go back to sports or if you have one injured ligament or have a torn meniscus to repair. ACL surgery is also good for life as patients can expect to stay active, enjoy high sport function and quality of life. A new study shows quality of life and enjoyment of high sports function are seen in patients with ACL surgery 10 years after ACL repair. The ACL got stronger after surgery. The bone portion of the graft allows it to incorporate and heal very quickly into the tunnels used for the reconstruction. It is quite strong. Biomechanical studies have shown that it is about 70% stronger than a normal ACL at the time of implantation. ACL surgery reconstruction involves replacing the damaged tendon with a normal one. This offers the best chance of returning to normal knee function. It usually allows people to return to sports and other physical activities that require a stable knee. ACL surgery has an 80% success rate. Most people who have the surgery enjoy long time knee health. Surgery success rate mainly depends on precautions one takes after ACL surgery. Precautions include elevation of leg. You have to keep your operated leg elevated at a rated leg elevated at 45 degrees. Prop your leg on cushions or pillows in that way so, your knees are 12 inches above your heart for at least three to five days just after the surgery. Keep in mind keeping your leg elevated after surgery will help to manage swelling and throbs. Specially, when you are up or using crutches frequently, keep in mind elevation of the leg will work to manage any secondary condition that results after surgery. Try to avoid direct weight on your new knee during the early phases of recovery to avoid secondary complications. Wear your knee brace, as it enhances early recovery. Also do physical exercises to avoid complication and enhance recovery. You have to take these precautions on a serious note to avoid unwanted complications that may include severe pain, stiffness, loss of range of motion or even excessive bleeding, you need to have proper professional guidance to avoid these unwanted complications.
