Arthroscopic ACL avulsion fixation is a surgical procedure used to repair a complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) at its attachment point on the tibia. This procedure involves reattaching the torn ligament back to the bone using screws or other fixation devices. The goal of this arthroscopic ACL avulsion fixation in Chennai is to restore stability to the knee joint and allow the patient to return to normal activities. Recovery typically involves several months of rehabilitation to help regain strength, flexibility, and range of motion in the knee joint.
The process of arthroscopic ACI cartilage transplant in Chennai begins with the removal of a small sample of healthy cartilage from a non-weight-bearing area of the patient’s joint during an arthroscopic procedure. These chondrocytes are then cultured and multiplied in a laboratory, a process that may take several weeks. Once an adequate number of cells are obtained, a second arthroscopic procedure is performed to implant the cultured chondrocytes into the damaged area. ACI offers several advantages over traditional cartilage repair methods. Because it uses a patient’s own cells, there is minimal risk of immune rejection. Additionally, ACI is particularly suitable for treating larger cartilage defects that may not respond well to other treatments like microfracture surgery. It can also potentially delay or even prevent the progression of osteoarthritis, a common degenerative joint disease associated with cartilage damage.
