Hey just wondering.. How did it go? Are you walking again or are you still trying to fix your knee?

[@Wild_HIC]

@@midmonk2054 great! I just had my surgery yesterday and it hurts like hell tbh Yesterday wad truly a hell of pain but today is a bit better

[@diegorocha6733]

Looks simple enough. 😂

[@bindaasmard664]

Brilliant presentation, I think a part of fibertape will forever remain inside knee join along with ACL graft, it will constantly keep rubbing with graft during full range of motion if someone is having active lifestyle. Fibertape is strong n non flexible will this constant friction between fibertape n newly formed graft lead to further damage to graft or knee bone some 10-15 years down the line ? will there be any side effects of having such foreign body inside knee forever ? As per my research the ribertape tightens during full extension of knee and exactly opposite happens when you flex the knee. In our mother nature gifted original ACL the AMB tightens during knee flexion while the PLB becomes slack and vise versa. Do you think this newly formed acl graft (using all internal fibertape) will achieve exactly the same results as original one after full recovery ?

Of course dummy its been tested

Had my Acl surgery 6 months ago. 1 question what happens to the thread/wire that sticked around the graft in coming time?

[@qxezwcs]

It will come out 1 day when you get a cut somewhere in your body.

[@roopeshnayak3141]

yes!! what happens to the thread

[@dannibble]

It just stays there. It's braided permanent suture called fiber wire. Same thing they use for rotator cuffs. It's how they pass the graft and achieve proper tension before fixation. They then trim the excess suture. But that suture is what holds it permanently in places between a button and or a screw.

Patient me watching this and thinking that how doctor would prepare graft for me when I was laying down unconscious in operation theatre 🙂

[@tanjilamahjabin8072]

haha, same here bro, to be honest, I'm really anxious about trusting surgeons overthinking how they'll make graft, how they'll drill my bones 😓

Has any research been done on using something like a carbon fiber bundle instead of human tissue?

[@OS.Clinic]

The literature suggests a very high failure rate when using Synthetic tissue to reconstruct the ACL, so either the patients own or donated tissue (allograft) is preferred.

[@hchattaway]

@@OS.Clinic yes, after posting this I was reading papers on it from the 1980's when it was investigated and they all said the same thing... I was surprised.. thought it would work! Many new materials being developed too so might work in the future! :)

@orthopedicspecialist i want to have my acl repaired can yall do it

[@planetari7607]

Hello, quick question what causes instability and knee locking 2-4 weeks post op?

[@midmonk2054]

Instability is directly connected CNS and muscle degeneration u (cure do more exercises and eat supplements protein) And about knee locking u should focus on more bending exercise.

[@rorypuds]

9.5mm is quite a thick graft is it not?

[@rorypuds]

@@OS.Clinic superb - I had my surgery 4 weeks back and have a 9mm graft, are there any studies on comparison to a native ACL strength?

[@OS.Clinic]

@@rorypuds The strength of the reconstructed ACL is directly associated with the size of the graft, studies demonstrate a lower failure rate with larger grafts.

[@exposed3396]

7cm?? That's quite average

[@javieralarcon5336]

Wow
