Capsular Management in Hip Arthroscopy: Interportal and T‐Capsulotomy, Suspension, and Closure

Capsular management in hip arthroscopy has recently become a popular topic in the literature. Various approaches have been developed around the critical balance between safe and satisfactory exposure while maintaining hip joint stability and the restoration of capsular integrity at the conclusion of the case. Advocates for capsular closure recognize the role of the capsule in providing hip joint stability and aim to reestablish normal hip biomechanics through capsule preservation. Several recent studies have also shown capsular management strategies to influence both clinical outcomes and risk of revision surgery. We present an effective method for capsular management in hip arthroscopy that consistently allows excellent exposure and working space while allowing for facile, anatomic closure.
