ACL Surgery
Gresi is an elite tennis athlete from Albania. She was the No. 1 ranked women’s player in Albania and top 500 ITF junior. She unfortunately tore her ACL and sought out Dr. Momaya to reconstruct it. She underwent a patellar tendon autograft with lateral extra-articular iliotibial band tenodesis. She had a terrific recovery. During her first season back, Gresi went undefeated at home.
Dr. Momaya, Chief of Sports Medicine at UAB, is proud to provide orthopedic care for tennis athletes across Alabama.
Patient consent was obtained.
