Leziunea care destabilizează genunchiul la mișcările de pivotare

The article discusses anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, common in sports involving quick direction changes. Symptoms include pain and swelling, with a lingering feeling of instability. Diagnosis involves assessing instability and potential meniscus or cartilage damage, often confirmed by MRI. Not all ACL injuries require surgery; treatment depends on activity level and patient goals. For active individuals with instability, ligament reconstruction may be advised, typically performed via arthroscopy. Postoperative recovery is crucial for regaining mobility and strength, with a return to sports contingent on meeting functional criteria.
