About the Procedure

What is ACL Reconstruction?

ACL Reconstruction is a minimally invasive arthroscopic surgery to replace a torn anterior cruciate ligament in the knee with a graft, restoring stability and function. It is commonly recommended for athletes and active individuals who experience recurrent knee instability, giving way, or inability to return to sports after an ACL tear. The procedure allows most patients to resume normal daily activities and sports with proper rehabilitation.

Who may be considered?

ACL Reconstruction may be considered after a qualified specialist reviews your reports and medical history. Suitability varies from person to person and must be assessed by your treating doctor.

How does it work?

Uses the patient's own hamstring tendons (semitendinosus and gracilis) harvested from the same knee to reconstruct the torn ligament under arthroscopic guidance.

2 approaches available for this procedure:

Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction with Hamstring Autograft

Most Popular

Uses the patient's own hamstring tendons (semitendinosus and gracilis) harvested from the same knee to reconstruct the torn ligament under arthroscopic guidance.

Comprehensive Investigations

Estimated cost: $150 - $500

MRI of the knee, X-ray of the knee (weight-bearing views), CBC, blood sugar, coagulation profile, ECG, physiotherapy assessment

Treatment / Procedure Estimate

Estimated cost in India: $3,500 - $5,500

Stay in India

Pre-procedure stay (outside hospital): ~1 day
Hospitalisation: ~2-3 days
Recovery period (outside hospital): ~10-14 days recommended in India before flying
Total stay: approx 12-18 days

Usually Included in Hospital Package

  • Surgeon and anesthetist fees
  • Operation theatre and implant/graft fixation devices
  • Hospital stay with nursing care
  • Post-operative brace
  • Initial physiotherapy sessions

Usually Not Included

  • International/domestic flights
  • Visa and travel insurance
  • Extended hotel stay for companion
  • Extended outpatient physiotherapy after discharge

Recovery and follow-up

Patients typically use crutches for 1-2 weeks, follow a structured physiotherapy program for 6-9 months, and gradually return to sports around 9-12 months post-surgery, with regular follow-up to assess knee stability and strength.

Risks

Potential risks include graft failure or re-tear, infection, stiffness, persistent knee pain, and incomplete return to pre-injury activity level, though these are uncommon with experienced surgical teams and proper rehabilitation.

Alternatives

Non-surgical management with bracing and intensive physiotherapy may be considered for low-demand patients with partial tears, while some cases may opt for allograft (donor tissue) reconstruction instead of autograft to avoid additional harvest-site morbidity.

Our methodology

How GAF Healthcare selects doctors

Doctors may be included when they meet relevant criteria for acl reconstruction. This is a transparent listing methodology, not a clinical recommendation or paid ranking:

01

Relevant specialty

orthopedics expertise is mapped from the doctor's listed specialty and profile information.

02

Procedure relevance

acl reconstruction is listed among the doctor's procedures or areas of expertise, using matching terms where appropriate.

03

Hospital affiliation

The doctor is currently affiliated with a recognised hospital in the GAF directory. Hospital details and availability can change, so confirm them before booking.

04

Professional experience

Experience is displayed from the doctor's available professional profile and is used as the ordering signal when the page lists doctors.

05

Data verification

Doctor and hospital information is checked against the records available to GAF and updated when new information is supplied. It is not a substitute for confirming credentials directly.

06

No paid ranking

Being featured does not automatically mean the doctor is ranked number one. GAF does not sell position on this page.
