About Knee Injuries

Pediatric knee injury management involves specialized orthopedic care for children and adolescents with acute or chronic knee problems. Common injuries include anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, meniscus tears, patellar dislocations, osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), and growth plate fractures. Treatment is tailored to the child's developing skeleton, prioritizing preservation of growth plates and long-term joint health. Options range from conservative management with bracing and physical therapy to advanced arthroscopic or open surgical procedures. The goal is to restore pain-free function, prevent future arthritis, and allow safe return to sports and daily activities. Pediatric orthopedists use child-specific techniques and implants to ensure optimal outcomes.

PATIENT REVIEW

Pari Garcia is a vibrant 12-year-old...

Pari Garcia is a vibrant 12-year-old who lives for dance, especially her competitive hip-hop crew. During a complex routine, she landed a jump awkwardly and felt a sharp pop in her knee, followed by immediate swelling and an inability to bear weight. An MRI confirmed a complete tear of her anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Dr. Evans, her pediatric orthopedic surgeon, explained that due to Pari's age and high activity level, surgical reconstruction using a graft from her own hamstring tendon was necessary to restore stability and prevent further damage to her growing knee. The arthroscopic surgery went smoothly, but the initial recovery was daunting for Pari, weeks on crutches, a bulky brace, and missing her dance competitions. Her emotional journey was a rollercoaster, swinging from frustration and sadness over her lost season to a fierce determination in physical therapy, fueled by her dance team's support. Nine months post-op, after rigorous rehab, Pari was cleared to return to dance. While cautiously rebuilding her skills, she feels strong and stable. The experience gave her a profound appreciation for her body's resilience and a more mindful approach to her passion.
