What Is Knee Ligament Surgery?
Knee ligament surgery is a specialized orthopedic procedure used to repair or reconstruct damaged ligaments in the knee — most commonly the ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) or PCL (posterior cruciate ligament). These ligaments are essential for maintaining knee stability during activities like walking, running, or pivoting.
In cases of sports injuries, accidents, or repeated strain, the ligaments can tear partially or completely. Dr. Mitesh Patel, a leading orthopedic and arthroscopic surgeon in Surat, performs minimally invasive knee surgery using advanced arthroscopic techniques. This ensures smaller incisions, less post-operative pain, and a quicker return to activity.
