Advanced LCL Repair

Lateral Collateral Ligament

Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) reconstruction is a surgical procedure performed by a trusted orthopedic doctor in Thane to restore knee stability and function following an LCL tear. This crucial ligament supports the outer side of the knee and is often injured due to inner knee impact or forceful twisting during sports or accidents. During the procedure, the torn LCL is replaced with a graft—usually from the patient’s tissue or a donor—to replicate its natural function. The goal is to reduce pain, improve lateral knee strength, and restore mobility. At our orthopedic clinic in Thane, advanced surgical methods ensure precise reconstruction and faster recovery.

Who needs Lateral Collateral Ligament surgery?

LCL reconstruction at AcktivOrtho is ideal for those experiencing outer knee instability, ligament tears, or limited motion due to sports injuries or direct trauma. Dr. Saikat Jena offers thorough assessment and advanced surgical solutions to restore lateral knee stability and promote long-term joint recovery.

Impact to the Inner Knee
A direct blow to the inner side of the knee, often from contact sports like football or hockey, can overstretch or tear the LCL, leading to outer knee instability and pain.
Sudden Sideways Movements
Quick lateral movements or abrupt direction changes during sports can place excessive strain on the LCL, increasing the risk of sprains or tears that hinder normal knee function.
Hyperextension or Knee Dislocation
Overstretching the knee or experiencing a dislocation from trauma or falls may damage the LCL, resulting in reduced lateral stability, discomfort, and potential need for surgical treatment.

Surgery Options

Types Of Lateral Collateral Ligament surgery

Primary LCL Reconstruction Surgery

This standard procedure is used to treat a completely torn LCL. A graft—often from the patient’s hamstring or a donor—is used to replace the damaged ligament. It restores lateral knee stability, reduces pain, and helps return to normal activity levels.

Partial LCL Repair Surgery

Ideal for patients with minor or partial LCL tears, this minimally invasive approach focuses on repairing the existing ligament rather than replacing it. It preserves natural tissue, offers quicker recovery, and is suitable when the ligament structure remains largely intact.

Combined Ligament Reconstruction Surgery

When the LCL injury occurs along with ACL, PCL, or other ligament damage, a combined procedure is performed. This restores comprehensive knee stability and function, particularly for high-demand athletes or those with complex trauma.

Revision LCL Surgery

Recommended when a prior LCL repair fails due to reinjury or improper healing. The failed graft is removed, and a new one is inserted with improved positioning to restore lateral support, reduce pain, and prevent joint instability.

Anatomic LCL Reconstruction Surgery

Uses advanced imaging to closely match the patient’s natural ligament anatomy. This method allows precise graft placement and tensioning, leading to improved biomechanical outcomes, faster recovery, and more natural knee movement.

Arthroscopic LCL Surgery

A minimally invasive technique using a small camera and instruments inserted through tiny incisions. It ensures reduced tissue trauma, less post-op pain, and faster healing, while effectively treating mild to moderate LCL tears.

LCL surgery is a procedure to repair or reconstruct the Lateral Collateral Ligament, which stabilizes the outer side of the knee. It's typically required when the ligament is torn due to trauma or sports injuries and does not heal with conservative treatment.

In LCL reconstruction, a damaged ligament is replaced with a graft taken from the patient’s own tissue (autograft) or a donor (allograft). The new ligament is fixed into place using surgical anchors or screws to restore knee stability and function.

Recovery typically takes about 4 to 6 months, depending on the severity of the injury and the patient’s overall health. Physical therapy begins shortly after surgery to restore movement, and return to sports may take several months.

Yes, a knee brace is usually recommended during the early recovery phase to protect the repaired ligament and prevent excessive lateral movement. Your surgeon will guide you on how long to wear it based on your healing progress.
