Knee ligament surgery may be considered for severe ligament injuries or for cases where non-surgical treatment methods are ineffective.
In most cases, surgery is performed under general anaesthesia using arthroscopic (minimally invasive) surgical techniques, which involve making small incisions through which a tiny camera (arthroscope) and surgical instruments are inserted.
Using the arthroscope, the surgeon will then examine the inside of the knee joint to assess the damaged ligament(s) and identify any associated injuries.
If ligament reconstruction is required, the surgeon will harvest an autograft (a piece of tissue) to replace the damaged ligament. Common graft sources include the patellar tendon, the hamstring tendons, or donor tissue (allograft). The surgeon will use this graft to reconstruct the damaged ligament, which involves securing the graft in place using screws, staples, or other fixation devices.
The surgeon will then ensure that the reconstructed ligament provides stability to the knee joint. Lastly, the incisions will be closed, and a sterile dressing will be placed over them.
