Dr Manu Bora, an orthopaedic surgeon, has been using new techniques to treat sports related injuries for quite some time now. He is introducing a new technique in India which is used for ACL reconstruction. This new technique is known as all inside ACL construction technique with fibre tape internal bracing. Here we will see how this technique is different from the conventional ACL reconstruction that is done by the screw:

Conventional technique	All inside fibre tape internal braces technique
Two hamstring tendons are used	Only one hamstring tendon is used
Bigger hole is made in the bone	Pin size hole is made in the bone
Fibre tape cannot be used in the conventional screw fixation	Fibre tape internal bracing is used
Painful knee bending	Painless knee bending
90% knee bending can be achieved one month after surgery	90% bending knee bending can be achieved one day after surgery
Walking is painful	There is painless walking without support just one week after surgery
The patient is able to perform lunges after one month	The patient is able to perform lunges after one week
The patient is able to jog after 3 months	The patient is able to jog after 1 month
The patient can get back to sports only after 6 or 7 months	The patient can get back to sports in less than 3 months

The results with this technique have proven to be a lot faster, painless, and far more effective than the conventional ones. The greatest case study is of an athlete who ran a marathon just 4.5 months after a ACL repair with the all inside fibre tape internal bracing technique.
