Videos of my surgery - - Posted by Wookster (Wookster), 20 January 2005

I've had these up on the web for a while. In case anyone's interested in watching them here the links are:

My Arthroscopy:

(1 long clip where you can clearly see the torn ACL, the bloody mess inside and the removal)

My ACL reconstruction

(series of video clips as I got them from the OS after my surgery)

I also have a series of photos from my OS on how the hamstring is grafted which I can post if anyone's interested.

Warning: some of these clips are quite graphic and bloody.

This old Forum was so valuable that we have kept it as an archive. It is just for reference. If you want to ask questions or offer advice, there is also a current Bulletin Board which you can access from our home page.
