Yes, the presence of diastolic dysfunction in an 82-year-old parent undergoing shoulder surgery warrants a discussion with the surgeon and anesthesiologist about potential risks.

To determine if your ACL injury requires surgery, and its severity, a doctor will typically use a combination of your symptoms, physical examination, and imaging tests like X-rays or MRI. A complete tear or severe instability usually indicates a need for surgery, while minor tears may be managed with physical therapy.
