Knee joint is the most important joint of the body when it comes to mobility. The knee joint has 4 major ligaments namely anterior cruciate ligament, posterior cruciate ligament, lateral collateral ligament and medial collateral ligament. There are 2 meniscus as well i.e medial and lateral meniscus. The anterior cruciate ligament injury is the most common ligament injury of the knee. The ACL ligament can be injured both by a high velocity RTA or a low velocity twisting injury. It is one of the most common sports injury. In India many two wheeler accidents lead to ACL injuries. A torn ACL makes the knee unstable and prone to injuries. The main symptoms are instability and locking. The injured person has difficulty in going upstairs and specifically downstairs. We recommend the ACL injuries to be addressed within 3months. A delay in the treatment will result in further damages to knee. Lateral meniscal injuries are more common with acute ACL injuries whereas chronic ACL injuries which are neglected and nontreated will lead to medial meniscal tears.
The standard treatment of this injury is a ACL reconstruction surgery in which a graft is used to reconstruct the torn ACL ligament. The graft we most commonly use is the semitendinosis tendon.
Dr Prathmesh Jain has his unique technique of doing ACL reconstruction which is based on the thorough understanding of knee anatomy and peer review. He does an anatomical single bundle quadrupled enforced ligament reconstruction using a single tendon with a fixed loop button on femur and biocomposite screw fixation on tibia. The surgical duration is just 20 to 30 min and all efforts are made to reconstruct the natural knee anatomy. He has devised SMART technique: Safe and speedy, Mixed Fixation on tibial side, Anatomical, Reamer(flexible) and Tendon Preserving (Single tendon)
There is a great dearth of good ligament surgeons in India. Dr Prathmesh jain is one of the first US Sports fellowship trained Sports medicine surgeons in India.

A successfully done knee ligament surgery makes the knee stable and long lasting. The chances of further injuries is reduced. Most of the injured sportsperson are back to sports. In India many sedentary individuals also sustain ACL injuries . The most common reason is lack of supple and muscular knee joint. Lack of aerobic exercise and training leads to a joint which is prone to injury. A physically unfit person who is not exercising leads to a weak quadricep and hamstring muscle which gives way when sustaining a minor injury. Hence aerobic exercises and safe sports techniques should be followed by a person to prevent himself from sports injuries.
