Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Injury

An anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a sprain or tear of one of the main ligaments of the knee. ACL injuries most commonly occur during sports that involve sudden stops, direction changes, or jumping.

ACL reconstruction surgery involves replacing the torn ligament with a graft, typically from the patient's own hamstring or patellar tendon, to restore knee stability and function.
