Knee surgery Reg.
Hello doctor, I have attached doctor's prescription with this. Doctor said I need to undergo ACL reconstruction surgery. I know there are different kinds of grafts available. But I forgot to ask doctor about what kind of graft would be used in the surgery. I had attached photos of doctors prescription. Could you please go through it and say me the type of graft he has mentioned. Kindly help me. Thank you.

Hello... Sorry I couldn't understand the spelling, you have to ask that doc only. who participate in high demand sports like football, and basketball are more likely to injure their anterior cruciate ligaments.x ray is required ,depending on the grade of tear doctor will decide to do physiotherapy or surgery Most ACL tears cannot be sutured (stitched) back together. To surgically repair the ACL and restore knee stability, the ligament must be reconstructed.
