    What is Ligament Reconstruction

    Ligaments connect bones to other bones, and these bands of fibrous tissues provide your joints with stability and support. You can get a ligament tear if you get into an accident, have an injury, or due to a medical condition. When the ligament is severely torn, you will require a surgical procedure called ligament reconstruction.

    A ligament reconstruction is a surgical treatment that replaces the damaged part of the ligament with a harvested tendon; the tendon could be your own or taken from a deceased donor. Our orthopedist offers effective ligament reconstruction in Houston to provide you with high-quality care.

    Our Ligament Reconstruction Procedures in Houston

    We treat your ligament damage using proper techniques. Our team will thoroughly assess your injured joint and proceed with adequate treatment. If your ligament is severely damaged or weak, our orthopedist will recommend reconstruction. Here are some ligament reconstruction procedures we offer in Houston:

    1. Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction/Repair: It is a surgical procedure that replaces a torn ACL with a graft, typically taken from the patient’s own hamstring or patellar tendon, after we have confirmed it cannot be repaired. This surgery is commonly performed to restore stability and function to the knee, especially for athletes who experience significant knee instability due to the injury.
    2. Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction/Repair: This procedure addresses injuries to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), which is crucial for knee stability. The procedure involves repairing a damaged PCL or replacing it with a graft, often sourced from the patient’s hamstring or from a donor, to restore normal knee function and prevent further joint issues.
    3. Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction: MCL Reconstruction focuses on injuries to the medial collateral ligament (MCL), which stabilizes the inner side of the knee. This surgery may involve repairing the torn ligament or reconstructing it with a graft, helping to restore stability and prevent pain during movement.
    4. Lateral Collateral Ligament Reconstruction/Repair: The surgical treatment targets injuries to the lateral collateral ligament (LCL), which stabilizes the outer side of the knee. The procedure can either repair or reconstruct the damaged ligament using a graft, aiming to restore proper knee function and stability for activities involving lateral movements.

    Dr. Barrett Brown is a very fine physician. He is also a friend. While he is a surgeon he said this about my horribly painful shoulder. First we will try an injection performed by our specialist using ultra sound. (It was painless.) If that does not relieve your pain we will do a cat scan to evaluate the rotator cuff.

    Highly recommend Dr Brown!!! He took time to answer all questions without rushing. I called his office in severe pain and received the in- office MRI and Dr appt the next day then Dr Brown explained my condition and I was booked for surgery with their on-site hospital days later. The surgery went great and I was treated great by all staff. They have valet service as well. Thanks Dr Brown and all staff!!!

    I had a rotator cuff repair with Dr. Brown. Everyone at this hospital from the registration staff, pre-op nurse, surgery staff, recovery room nurse, the anesthesiologist, and of course, the surgeon, Dr. Brown were all professional and caring.

    I have, unfortunately, been a frequent visitor to the Fondren Orthopedic clinic as I cannot seem to stay on my feet 😅. My most recent experience with Dr. Brown has been nothing short of excellent. From the initial exam to surgery and then the follow up and discussion of how I am healing have been extremely thorough and communication has been a 10. I would definitely recommend.
