do you use the hamstring instead of the patella?

[DrGoradia]

I use a variety of different grafts depending on the patient: hamstring, patellar tendon and allografts

new procedure? all through a scope? wow. who doesnt do that now a days

[DrGoradia]

Most surgeons DON'T. Most DO perform and arthroscopically assisted procedure in which an incision is made over the tibia and a 8-12mm diameter tunnel is drilled through the tibia into the joint.

The ALL-Inside surgery I perform is very different. By the way there are other surgeons around the country that perform the same procedure but it is still a minority.

How do you control fixation on the tibial side. do you think a compromise occurs when passing the tibial screw in flexion.

Does anyone think I'll need this surgery? About a month ago at soccer practice a girl fell on me and weighed as much as me, and I fell and my knee bent behind my leg as I fell and our combined weight of around 300 LBS crunched my knee. I can walk normally for the most part and skateboard some what. I haven't been to the doctors but I also haven't been running since then. I no longer feel any pain just some occasional nerve spasms in my knee. Do you think I'll need to get surgery? Thanks.

Can you tell me what doctors perform this new procedure in the NYC area?

Is this procedure done with an autograph tendon?
