What is acl revision surgery?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
For failed ACL Recon: "revision acl surgery" usually refers to the surgery that is done after the initial acl surgery has failed. There are numerous reasons acl surgery fails and there are a variety of ways to treat that failure. Revision surgery, while good, does not usually yield as good as a result as one gets after the 1st surgery.
