Key result
Capsular reconstruction with dermal allograft and labral augmentation with tibialis anterior allograft is described as a surgical technique for treating gross instability after hip arthroscopy.
Why the study?
With increasing use of hip arthroscopy, maintaining the integrity of the hip capsule and labrum is critical for optimizing postoperative function and stabilizing the hip joint.
Describes a surgical technique for capsular reconstruction and labral augmentation to treat gross hip instability after previous hip arthroscopy.
May offer salvage for refractory post-arthroscopy instability; leaves open need for prospective outcomes data.
The hip capsule and acetabular labrum are critical structures that function to protect and stabilize the hip joint. As the use of hip arthroscopy increases, there is increasing interest in the integrity of the hip capsule and labrum in optimizing postoperative function and outcomes. In this report, we describe the surgical technique for capsular reconstruction with dermal allograft and labral augmentation with tibialis anterior allograft for the treatment of gross instability after hip arthroscopy. This technique may be applied in situations with large capsular defects and deficient labral tissue.
