ACL INJURIES
This ACL ligament is found inside the knee. If it is completely ruptured and there is associated instability, repair may be indicated because the ligament is unable to heal by itself.
CARTILAGE INJURIES
Articular cartilage injuries can result in loose fragments (loose bodies) in the knee that could cause further damage as they get caught between the joint surfaces.
MENISCAL INJURIES
A meniscus tear injury can occur to either one or both of the menisci found within the knee joint. Menisci are crescent-shaped rings, triangular in cross-section.
HIP & KNEE ARTHRITIS
Arthritis occurs due to degeneration of the articular cartilage that lines the joint surface. If untreated, hip or knee arthritis can become progressively painful and stiff.
OSTEOPOROSIS
Osteoporosis can result in ‘in-sufficiency’ fractures. It may be appropriate to investigate and treat osteoporosis to reduce your risk of fractures. The NICE (National Institute of Clinical Excellence) provides guidance here.
