Sport Knee Surgery Procedures
Our specialized procedures help athletes recover from knee injuries and return to their sport stronger than before.
ACL Reconstruction and Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis
ACL reconstruction is the gold-standard surgical treatment for ACL ruptures.
Cartilage Reconstruction
Cartilage injury is devastating in a knee due to ensuing pain and degeneration. One day an ability to reliably lay down new cartilage, perhaps with cartilaginous stem cells will be a holy-grail treatment, but this remains an elusive fantasy today.
MCL Surgery
The MCL is frequently managed without surgery, due to a good propensity to heal and result in minimal functional problems.
Meniscal Repair
The meniscus is a treatment quandary. They provide a vital role in knee mechanics and protection of the cartilage surfaces, acting as a shock-absorber, as well as a stabiliser to protect the ligaments around the knee. For this reason, it seems important to preserve them as much as reasonably possible.
Osteotomy
Osteotomy is the practice of breaking a bone using surgical precision, in order to realign it in a more optimal position. Metalware such as plates and screws are used to secure the new position.
PCL and PLC Surgery
While many PCL injuries are managed without surgery, those that require surgery have historically resulted in less than satisfactory results.
Patella Stabilisation
When a patella dislocates from its groove in front of the femur with floating cartilage, or persistently recurs despite physical therapy, or with abnormal anatomy, stabilisation procedures are indicated.
Radiofrequency Ablation
Radiofrequency ablation is the practice of burning nerve endings adjacent to a painful joint, such as the knee, to decrease pain.
Tendon Repairs
Tendons have good blood supply and therefore have a reasonable tendency to heal themselves.
Trochleoplasty
Trochleoplasty is a significant surgery. It involves lifting the cartilage at the front of the femur off the bone, recreating a normal groove in the bone, and anchoring the cartilage back down.
