Cruciate ligament rupture surgery<\/strong> can ensure that your knee regains more stability in the long term. Some cruciate ligament injuries do not require surgery, but surgery is advisable in many cases. A damaged cruciate ligament can be replaced by surgery with us in D\u00fcsseldorf and thus a better long-term result can be achieved. This is not only recommended for competitive athletes. The cruciate ligament is usually replaced, for example, by the patient’s own tendon tissue or (in exceptional cases) by an artificial implant. Find out here how cruciate ligament surgery works.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text disabled_on=”off|off|off” module_class=”liste-leistungen blue-background” _builder_version=”4.15.1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]Information on cruciate ligament rupture surgery<\/strong><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”ref-eigenbluttherapie” module_class=”liste-leistungen” _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Vorteile” module_id=”ref-vorteile” _builder_version=”4.15.1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Cruciate ligament rupture surgery is performed both as an inpatient and increasingly as an outpatient procedure.<\/p>\n The surgery itself often requires only a few small incisions. Nowadays, a cruciate ligament replacement is usually performed. This has the advantage that the follow-up results are better than with a simple cruciate ligament suture. Cruciate ligament rupture surgery<\/strong> (also called cruciate ligament replacement surgery) at our clinic in D\u00fcsseldorf is performed under a low-risk, gentle general anaesthetic.<\/p>\n To replace the cruciate ligament, the semitenidnosus tendon is usually used and, if necessary, another tendon of the pes anserinus. Alternatively, the semitendinosus tendon from the other leg or the quadriceps tendon from the affected knee joint can be used as a replacement. An autologous implant reduces the risk of rejection. An artificial tendon is also conceivable. Healing after a cruciate ligament replacement is usually uncomplicated and takes about 6-8 weeks. Immediately after such a cruciate ligament rupture<\/strong> operation, physiotherapeutic treatment can be started, for example, with us in D\u00fcsseldorf, which can of course also take place close to home.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/dus-orthopaedie-unfallchirurgie.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/kreuzband-op-dus-liegestuhl.jpeg” alt=”Cruciate ligament rupture OP DUS recliner” title_text=”Cruciate ligament rupture OP DUS recliner” _builder_version=”4.15.1″ global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_id=”ref-experten” _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.15″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Ablauf” module_id=”ref-ablauf” _builder_version=”4.15.1″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n A cruciate ligament reconstruction<\/strong> is ideally performed within 24 hours after the accident. Otherwise, wait until the first swelling has subsided.<\/p>\n Therefore, it must first be evaluated whether and how long the cruciate ligament<\/strong> has been torn and whether there are concomitant injuries such as a meniscus injury.<\/p>\n After the examination, the review of the diagnostic examinations (e.g. MRI) as well as the diagnosis and surgical indication in one of our practices in D\u00fcsseldorf, the choice of tendon is determined which is best suited as an implant. The choice of cruciate ligament replacement also depends on how much stress the knee can expect in the future.<\/p>\n In this knee operation, the damaged cruciate ligament is first removed and replaced in a second step by the previously selected and removed tendon. Only small incisions are necessary for cruciate ligament rupture surgery<\/strong>, through which optics and instruments are passed. Cruciate ligament reconstruction is attached to the femur and tibia to give the knee back the stability it needs.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_code module_class=”leistung-tabelle” _builder_version=”4.15.1″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]Cruciate ligament rupture surgery in D\u00fcsseldorf<\/h2>\n
