Ligament Reconstruction Delhi: Dr. Aman Dua Delivers Strong Knees & Rapid Recovery.
Ligament reconstruction surgery restores joint stability by repairing or replacing damaged ligaments, commonly needed after sports injuries or trauma affecting knees, shoulders, or ankles. Performed by experts like Dr. Aman Dua Delhi, this procedure uses minimally invasive techniques for faster recovery. Patients regain function through tailored rehab, often returning to sports activities within 6-12 months.
Why Choose Reconstruction
Ligaments connect bones and stabilize joints, but tears from twisting motions or impacts disrupt movement and cause pain. Common cases include ACL tears in soccer players or rotator cuff issues in throwers. Surgery prevents chronic instability, arthritis, and further damage, especially for active individuals.
Procedure Overview
Surgeons start with imaging like MRI to assess damage, then select grafts—autografts from your hamstring or patellar tendon, or synthetic grafts. Under anesthesia, small arthroscopic incisions allow a camera-guided repair: the torn ligament is cleared, bone tunnels drilled, and the graft secured with screws or buttons. The process takes 1-2 hours, often requiring one day stay
Types Offered
- ACL Reconstruction: for ACL tears causing knee pain and Instability
- Meniscus: Meniscus Repair and root repairs, Meniscectomy
- Shoulder: Rotator cuff repair or Bankart repair for shoulder dislocation
Recovery Timeline
Post-op, a brace immobilizes the joint for weeks, followed by physio focusing on strength and mobility. Expect crutches initially, gradual weight-bearing, and sports clearance after 9 months. Dr. Dua emphasizes lifelong precautions like avoiding high-impact twists to ensure implant longevity.
Risks and Success
Complications like infection or graft failure are rare (under 5%) with experienced surgeons. Outcomes exceed 90% stability restoration, boosting quality of life. Consult Dr. Aman Dua (24+ years, AIIMS-trained) at Fortis Escorts , Okhla for personalized plans in Delhi.
