Uni-compartmental and ACL Reconstruction?

[Guest guest]

Concerned about the functionality of bi-lateral TKAs (I'm a very active skier

and moderately active athlete) I investigated the Respici uni-compartmental

partial knee surgery. After having CT Scans of both knees (I need to have them

both done), my surgeon has suggested that my ACLs are gone. He has recommended

I have the Respici uni-compartmental unit inserted along with an ACL

reconstruction (at the same time). Does anyone have any information on this?

It sounds like a great reconstruction, wherein I'll end up with a good ACL and

most of my knees. But I would appreciate any feedback from someone who has had

this procedure, and preferably a while back. He wants to use a cadaver ACL.

Any thoughts on this?
