A member asked:
What treatment is recommended for full-thickness anterior cruciate ligament graft tear? i have no pain and only minor instability (side to side).
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See ORS : If your acl graft rupture is isolated ( no meniscus injury, etc)your treatment may be nonoperative as long as the graft doesn't cause pain , catching or instability.See an experienced knee surgeon for examination and treatment alternatives .( revision acl reconstruction can always be done @ later date if your knee becomes more unstable).Best of luck!
