Close-up of arthroscopic surgery to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament at Cua Dong General Hospital

(Baonghean.vn) - Previously, patients with joint injuries requiring arthroscopic surgery to treat the injury could only be successfully treated at central hospitals. However, since 2016, Cua Dong General Hospital has been transferred and successfully implemented the arthroscopic surgery technique to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee using autologous tendon. This is one of the most complex techniques in orthopedic trauma surgery today. The hospital is one of the pioneering medical units in Nghe An to apply this new technique in treatment and this is currently a routine surgery performed at the hospital.
