Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction Restoring Knee Stability and Function
Patient
56-year-old female, Democratic Republic of Congo
Clinical Context
The patient was diagnosed with a complete rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament of the right knee, confirmed on MRI. The injury resulted in pain, instability, and functional limitation.
Care Pathway
The case was reviewed by Indian orthopaedic surgeons. Imaging findings supported surgical intervention. A consensus recommendation was reached for arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with meniscus repair. A video consultation aligned treatment planning with the patient, family, and Jivo Doctor Partner.
Treatment
Pre-operative assessment in India confirmed a complete ACL tear with associated meniscal injury. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with meniscus repair was performed.
Outcome and Continuity
Post-operative outcomes included pain reduction and restoration of knee stability and function. Rehabilitation continued in the home country under Jivo Doctor Partner supervision, supporting ongoing strength and mobility recovery.
Case Insight
This case demonstrates how specialist consensus, minimally invasive orthopaedic surgery, and structured rehabilitation can restore function following complex ligament injury when advanced care is not available locally.
