Editorial commentary shows durable long-term outcomes after labral repair in active-duty military, suggesting effectiveness for highly active patients.
The active‐duty military represents a high‐demand population with previously unreported long‐term outcomes after arthroscopic posterior labral repair. While we can be encouraged by short‐ and medium‐term results, the durability of patient reported and clinically significant outcomes has remained unknown, until now. Long‐term follow‐up now shows that a low reoperation rate with high rates of return to sport and return to unrestricted duty can be achieved. Arthroscopic posterior labral repair remains a durable treatment in even the most demanding of patients.
