Key result
Placing labral anchors from the distal anterolateral accessory portal during hip arthroscopy provides a better trajectory and less joint penetration risk than traditional portals.
Why the study?
Does labral anchor insertion from the distal anterolateral accessory portal reduce the risk of joint penetration compared to traditional portals in patients undergoing arthroscopic hip labral repair?
Does labral anchor insertion from the distal anterolateral accessory portal reduce the risk of joint penetration compared to traditional portals in patients undergoing arthroscopic hip labral repair?
The distal anterolateral accessory portal may offer a safer trajectory for anchor insertion during arthroscopic hip labral repair.
When repairing hip labra arthroscopically, labral anchors seem to have a better trajectory and less risk of joint penetration when placed from the distal anterolateral accessory portal compared with the traditional anterolateral and midanterior portals.
