Medial Collateral Ligament Repair Procedure
The medial collateral ligament, also known as the MCL, is located on the inner side of the knee and allows the knee to move from side to side. If this ligament is injured, it can cause painful symptoms and prevent the knee from functioning properly. The goal of this procedure is to repair the torn ligament and introduce sutures or anchors to reconnect the damaged ends of the MCL and promote healing.
¿Cuando es necesario este procedimiento?
Medial collateral ligament repair surgery becomes medically necessary when conservative treatment options fail to effectively restore the stability and function of the knee joint. This type of surgery is typically recommended for individuals with severe MCL injuries, including complete or near-complete tears. It may also be considered in cases where other structures around the knee, such as the anterior cruciate ligament, are damaged as well. MCL repair surgery aims to reattach or reconstruct the torn ligament, primarily through open surgical techniques or arthroscopy. However, the decision to proceed with surgery depends on various factors, such as the patient’s age, activity level, overall knee stability, and associated injuries.

Qué esperar
Patients will be under general anesthesia to ensure their comfort throughout the procedure. The surgeon will begin by making an incision on the knee to access the medial collateral ligament. The surgeon will then reattach the torn ligament to the bone using sutures or anchors. When the goal of the procedure has been achieved, the surgeon will close the incision and the patient will be removed from the anesthesia. After the procedure, patients will focus on rest and rehabilitation. Once the region has healed, the patient will join a physical therapy program to regain function and range of motion.
