An ACL and LCL repair of the knee is a surgical procedure to reconstruct or repair the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and lateral collateral ligament (LCL), both of which provide stability to the knee joint.• The ACL, located in the center of the knee, helps control forward and rotational movement.
• The LCL, on the outer side of the knee, stabilizes against side-to-side forces.
Injuries to these ligaments often occur during high-impact sports or trauma and can result in pain, instability, and difficulty bearing weight.
Surgical repair typically involves using grafts (from the patient or a donor) to replace the damaged ligaments, with the LCL repair addressing lateral stability. Recovery includes a structured rehabilitation program to restore strength, mobility, and knee function, often taking several months.
