ACL Repair Surgery

Currently, there are an estimated 175,000 ACL repair surgeries performed annually in the U.S. The failure rate of this surgery is 10-20% when it is performed with traditional methods. Since ACL surgery is common among athletes, failures cause up to 35,000 normally active people to be stranded on the sidelines every year. Computer navigated ACL repair surgery shows drastically improved outcomes and shorter recovery times when compared to traditional surgical methods.

The Miriam Hospital is the only hospital in Rhode Island—and one of only five in the country—to offer this revolutionary surgical technology for ACL repairs.
