Rear-shaped ligament plastic
Small ruptures of the posterior cruciate ligament can be restored by conservative treatment, in a more serious case, an arthroscopic surgery is performed.
Highly qualified Olympus Clinic specialists conduct expert diagnostics and sparing minimally invasive operations on the knee joint of any degree of complexity using modern technologies.
Clinical analysis of blood and urine Radiography of the knee joint Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) Consultation with a therapist and specialized specialists such as an orthopedic traumatologist and an anesthesiologist
At the initial consultation, the doctor conducts a clinical examination and evaluates the volume of movements. On the day of the operation, the patient is hospitalized in the morning, and laryngeal mask anesthesia is performed. A camera with instruments is inserted into the joint through micro-injections, with the help of which the condition of the internal structures of the joint is assessed. Then, an implant made of the patient's own tendons is installed in place of the damaged ligaments, which is securely fixed. The operation lasts an average of 60-90 minutes.
Arthroscopes with high-quality optics Miniature surgical instruments
After the operation, the patient receives recommendations for rehabilitation. For the first 3 weeks, the knee joint is fixed in a straight orthosis, and the movement is carried out with the help of crutches. Then therapeutic gymnastics and physiotherapy (magnetic therapy, UVT, kinesiotaping, massage) are performed with a gradual increase in the load on the knee. After 4 weeks, a gradual transition from crutches to a cane begins, and then to walking without support. Full recovery to athletic loads takes 6-7 months.
