ACL Tear in Children

most of ACL tears in children/Pediatric can be managed  without surgery.

ACL reconstruction in children requires special epiphysis sparing  tunnels to prevent any damage to growth around knee 

1. PRP injection

PRP is your body’s own healing agents to regrow and repair damage to the ACL by concentrating and focusing them at the exact site of your injury. This approach allows for natural, efficacious healing without surgery

 

We do ACL REPAIR ( NO ACL TISSUE IS REMOVED AND THE TORN ACL IS REPAIRED ) & this repair is protected by FIBER TAPE INTERNAL BRACE fixed in GROTH PLATE PRESERVING POSITION, thus restoring your own ACL without any loss of original ACL TISSUE. THIS RESULTS IN BEST RECOVERY AND ATHLETES GO BACK TO SPORTS AND RUNNING WITHIN 3 MONTHS AFTER SURGERY

Growth plate preserving ACL Reconstruction 

If we need to reconstruct the ACL a  sleeve of the original ACL is left covering the new tendon in the knee joint to preserve proprioception nerve endings and we make tunnels in such a direction that it will not damage growth plate around knee The hamstring tendon is fixed to the bones using different implants.
