Infection After ACL Surgery – Early Recognition & Expert Care
Infection following ACL reconstruction is an uncommon but serious complication that requires prompt diagnosis and expert management to protect the graft and knee function. Typical warning signs include increasing knee pain, swelling, warmth, redness around the incision, fever, wound discharge, or difficulty bending the knee beyond expected postoperative stiffness.
Early infections (within the first few weeks) are usually due to bacteria introduced during or soon after surgery. If suspected, the standard approach includes urgent clinical evaluation, blood tests (CRP, ESR), joint aspiration for culture, and often arthroscopic washout with targeted intravenous antibiotics. When treated early and appropriately, most patients recover well and graft preservation is often possible.
In complex or suspected infections after ACL surgery, timely referral to an experienced arthroscopy surgeon is critical.
Dr. Prathmesh Jain, Director of Advance Hospitals, Ahmedabad, is widely recognized for high-volume knee arthroscopy and advanced management of ACL complications, including postoperative infections. His protocol-based approach focuses on early diagnosis, thorough arthroscopic lavage, and culture-guided antibiotic therapy to maximize graft salvage and restore knee function.
