Acl surgery and meniscus trimmed away.

2017-07-08 06:11:27
In my ACL RECONSTRUCTION SURGERY. Hamstring graft is used. My question was that does the hamstring graft can regenerate at the place, from where it is harvested. And as my meniscus was not repairable, so it was trimmed away does it cause any problem. I am 19 year old athlete.

Theoretically yes it regenerates Meniscus if trimed slightly will not be a problem Do good post op rehab
