An ACL repair\/reconstruction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that treats an ACL tear. Carolina Orthopaedic and Neurosurgical Associates\u2019 (CONA) knee specialists use the latest surgical techniques and instruments to perform ACL repair\/reconstruction procedures. Patients recover quickly and return to activities and sports with minimal to no restrictions. <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row custom_padding_last_edited=”on|phone” admin_label=”About Area” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|40px|10px|40px|false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”” custom_padding_phone=”|0px||0px||true” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”||||||||” text_text_color=”#002f47″ text_font_size=”17px” text_line_height=”1.5em” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”||||||||” header_2_text_color=”#33658a” header_2_font_size=”25px” header_2_letter_spacing=”1px” header_3_font=”||||||||” animation_style=”fold” animation_direction=”left” animation_intensity_fold=”5%” animation_starting_opacity=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Outpatient ACL repair\/reconstruction is performed under general anesthesia along with a nerve block (shot similar to what you receive at the dentist to make your leg numb). A CONA specialist:<\/span><\/p>\n A sterile dressing is placed over the surgical site and an ACE bandage is wrapped over it. A hinged knee brace set to a locked position is placed on the knee. Total procedure time is 1 \u00bd to 2 hours.<\/span><\/p>\n An ACL repair\/reconstruction is usually recommended to treat a completely torn ACL. Athletes and active individuals commonly have the procedure and return to sports and physical activities shortly after. <\/span><\/p>\n ACL repair\/reconstruction is minimally invasive, which means the large knee muscles are not cut and patients:<\/span><\/p>\n A CONA specialist see the patients about two weeks after surgery. Stitches are taken out and the patient is allowed to move their knee for the first time. Physical therapy starts after the appointment and continues throughout recovery. Patients who are dedicated to therapy recover quickly and receive the best results. Postoperative appointments occur 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery. Complete recovery takes 6-8 months. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”Video” _builder_version=”4.8.1″ background_color=”#002F47″ custom_padding=”50px|0px|56px|0px|false|false” global_module=”117″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#f3712b” divider_weight=”2px” _builder_version=”4.16″ max_width=”140px” module_alignment=”center” height=”2px” custom_margin=”12px||10px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text admin_label=”Title” _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”||||||||” ul_font=”||||||||” ol_font=”||||||||” header_font=”||||||||” header_text_color=”#ffffff” header_2_font=”|600|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#ffffff” header_2_font_size=”30px” header_2_letter_spacing=”0em” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” header_3_font=”||||||||” header_4_font=”||||||||” header_5_font=”||||||||” header_6_font=”||||||||” text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”||0px|” custom_margin_tablet=”|||0vw” custom_margin_phone=”||0px” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|desktop” animation_style=”slide” animation_direction=”left” animation_delay=”100ms” animation_intensity_slide=”10%” header_2_font_size_tablet=”30px” header_2_font_size_phone=”24px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”https:\/\/carolinaona.com\/staging\/physicians-staff\/” button_text=”Find Your Doctor” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_button=”on” button_text_color=”#FFFFFF” button_border_width=”1px” button_border_color=”#ffffff” background_layout=”dark” global_colors_info=”{}” button_border_color__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” button_border_color__hover=”#f3712b”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” prev_background_color=”#002F47″ disabled_on=”off|on|on” admin_label=”Footer” _builder_version=”4.16″ background_color=”#002f47″ use_background_color_gradient=”on” background_color_gradient_direction=”135deg” background_color_gradient_stops=”rgba(38,45,63,0.8) 0%|#262d3f 100%” background_color_gradient_overlays_image=”on” background_color_gradient_start=”rgba(38,45,63,0.8)” background_color_gradient_end=”#262d3f” background_image=”https:\/\/carolinaona.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/12\/Contact-3.jpg” background_enable_image=”off” custom_padding=”0vw||0||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”170px||50px|” top_divider_style=”ramp” top_divider_height=”3vw” top_divider_flip=”horizontal” top_divider_height_tablet=”80px” top_divider_height_phone=”80px” top_divider_height_last_edited=”off|desktop” bottom_divider_color=”#ffffff” bottom_divider_height=”200px” bottom_divider_repeat=”2x” bottom_divider_arrangement=”above_content” background_color_gradient_stops_tablet=”rgba(38,45,63,0.8) 0%|#262d3f 100%” background_color_gradient_stops_phone=”rgba(38,45,63,0.8) 0%|#262d3f 100%” global_module=”105″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ACL Repair ACL Repair Surgery in Spartanburg, Duncan and Greenville, SCACL Repair \/ Reconstruction Overview An ACL repair\/reconstruction is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that treats an ACL tear.
