Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Injury is quite common in sportspersons. If there is complete tear in the PCL then it would most probably require surgery. The surgery for PCL repair is normally done one month after the injury when the inflammation due to the injury has completely subsided. In this surgery the surgeon normally uses anchors to fix the Posterior Ligament. The surgery normally takes around 2 hours and the patient is back on feet on the next day after the surgery
The cost for PCL repair is slightly more than the ACL Repair Surgery as the implant used is different. The time taken in PCL repair is also more than the ACL Repair. The cost of Arthroscpic PCL repair using imported FDA approved implants is around USD 4000-5500 in a single deluxe room at our hospital. The hospitalization is for 1-2 days and the patient would require prolonged rehabilitation after the surgery. The patient would be able to achieve full mobility within 6 months after the surgery.
For any Ligament Surgery, post surgery rehab is extremely important. The surgeon might have done a perfect job but if proper physiotherapy is not done after the surgery then the results would not be as good. We give special emphasis on post surgery rehabilitation. Our team of physiotherapists start working with you while you are admitted at the hospital and continue to provide the rehab services once you are discharged from the hospital and move to the hotel or the guest house.
