Orthopaedic Associates of Zanesville has one of the best Ohio’s sports medicine and orthopaedic teams to help with ACL tears.
If you’ve suffered at ACL tear, there’s a different type of reconstructive surgery to consider: the double bundle.

The ACL is comprised of two separate functional bundles of fascicles, not a single cord. But traditional ACL reconstruction treats the ligament as though it were a single construct, replicating one of the functional bundles but not the other.

The double-bundle ACL technique more closely replicates the normal anatomy of the ACL and could improve knee kinematics, resulting in more normal functioning and reducing the incidence of degenerative arthritis.

If you have questions about your options, be sure to ask Ohio’s sports medicine team at OAZ!
