Labral Augmentation With Either Iliotibial Band Allograft or Dermis Allograft Perform Similarly Regarding Peak Force, Displacement, and Work to Labral Repair in Suction Seal Restoration: A Biomechanical Study. Arthroscopy 2024:S0749-8063(24)00073-2. [PMID: 38311265 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2024.01.029] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2023] [Revised: 01/01/2024] [Accepted: 01/14/2024] [Indexed: 02/10/2024]
Abstract
PURPOSE To investigate whether allograft substitutes may be used to restore suctional seal properties with labral augmentation, the purpose of the current study was to evaluate the biomechanical properties of the labral suction seal under several scenarios, including: (1) intact labrum, (2) rim preparation, (3) labral repair, (4) labral augmentation with iliotibial band (ITB), and (5) labral augmentation with a dermis allograft. METHODS Eleven hemi-pelvises were dissected to the level of the labrum and placed in a material testing system for biomechanical axial distraction. Each specimen was compressed to 250 newtons (N) and distracted at 10 mm/s while load, crosshead displacement, and time were continuously recorded. For each of the 5 labral states, 3 testing repetitions were performed. Peak force (N, newtons), displacement at peak force (mm, millimeter), and work (N-mm, newton, millimeter) were calculated and normalized to the intact state of each specimen. RESULTS Eleven specimens were tested and 8 specimens (age: 58.6 ± 5.4 years, body mass index: 28.6 ± 6.8 kg/m2; 4 female patients; 5 right hips) were included in final analyses. Expressed as a percentage relative to the intact state, the average normalized peak force, displacement at peak force, and work for each labral state were as follows: intact (100.0% ± 0% for all), rim preparation (89.0% ± 9.2%, 93.3% ± 20.6%, 85.1% ± 9.0%), repair (61.3% ± 17.9%, 88.4% ± 36.9%, 58.1% ± 16.7%), ITB allograft (62.7% ± 24.9%, 83.9% ± 21.6%, 59.4% ± 22.4%), and dermis allograft (57.8% ± 27.2%, 88.2% ± 29.5%, 50.0% ± 20.1%). Regarding peak force, intact state was significantly greater compared with the labral repair, augmentation with ITB, and augmentation with the dermis allograft states (P < .001). No significant differences were demonstrated between displacement at peak force (P = .561). Regarding work, both intact state and rim preparation states were significantly greater than the repair, ITB augmentation, and dermis allograft augmentation states (P < .001). In all outcome measures, the dermis allograft augmentation performed with no statistical difference to the ITB augmentation state. CONCLUSIONS Labral repair and labral augmentation with either ITB allograft or the dermis allograft resulted in significantly lower peak force and work to equilibrium compared with the intact and rim prep states. There was no statistical difference between repair and augmentation states as well as no statistical difference between ITB allograft and dermal allograft at time zero. CLINICAL RELEVANCE This study compares biomechanical properties of the suction seal of the hip comparing labral states including intact, rim preparation, repair, and augmentation, which can be used for surgical decision-making.

Abstract
Hip arthroscopy is rapidly increasing in case volume annually in the United States. However, it remains a challenging surgery with a steep learning curve. Labral repair is commonly performed to preserve the labrum rather than labral debridement or reconstruction. Many techniques have been described for labral repair. In this technical note, we describe our technique for a modified loop suture technique for arthroscopic labral repair of the hip.

Abstract
Background Arthroscopic suture repair is the main treatment option for hip labral tears; however, anchor insertion and placement from arthroscopic portals is difficult. Purpose To quantitatively evaluate the safety of various arthroscopic portals for suture anchor placement during hip labral repair. Study Design Descriptive laboratory study. Methods The computed tomography scans of 20 patients with normally developed hip joints were used to create 3-dimensional models. The distances from the anchor to the articular cartilage (DAC) and from the acetabular insertion point to the cortical bone (DCB) were measured in the anterolateral portal (AL), posterolateral portal (PL), midanterior portal (MAP), medial MAP, and 3 distal anterolateral accessory portals (DALAs): DALA-proximal, DALA-middle, and DALA-distal. Labral tears were divided into anterior (4, 3, and 2 o'clock), lateral (1, 12, and 11 o'clock), and posterior (10, 9, and 8 o'clock) acetabular zones, and the Kruskal-Wallis and Mann-Whitney U test were used to compare DAC and DCB in the zones. The success rate was defined as anchors placed with DAC ≥1 mm and DCB ≥15 mm. Results The DAC was significantly smaller in the AL at 1 o'clock (0.68 ± 0.32 mm; P < .001) and 12 o'clock (0.37 ± 0.30 mm; P < .001), and in the PL at 12 o'clock (-0.35 ± 0.38 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (0.60 ± 0.24 mm; P < .001). The DCB was significantly smaller in the DALA-P at 3 o'clock (8.93 ± 2.12 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (9.59 ± 2.84 mm; P < .001), the MAP at 12 o'clock (13.76 ± 3.89 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (0.27 ± 0.27 mm; P < .001), and the MMA at 12 o'clock (5.96 ± 2.31 mm; P < .001) and 11 o'clock (0 mm; P < .001). Success rates were high for MAP and MMA between 4 o'clock and 1 o'clock, for DALA-proximal at 12 o'clock, for AL at 11 o'clock, and for PL between 10 o'clock and 8-o'clock. Conclusion There were significant differences in the success rate of anchor placement using different portals during hip arthroscopic labral repair. Clinical Relevance MAP is recommended for labral repair between 4 o'clock and 1 o'clock, DALA-P is recommended between 2 o'clock and 12 o'clock, AL is suitable at 11 o'clock, and PL is suitable between 10 o'clock and 8 o'clock.

Abstract
The goal of acetabular labral repair is to restore stable contact between the labrum and acetabular rim while maintaining the anatomic suction seal. One of the challenges of labral repair is achieving proper in-round repair, so that the labrum contacts the femoral head in the native position. This technique article presents a repair method that allows for enhanced inversion of the labrum to assist with anatomic repair. Our modified toggle suture technique utilizes an anchor-first method and has various distinct technical advantages. We present an efficient and vendor-agnostic technique that allows for straight or curved guides. Similarly, the anchors may be all-suture or hard-anchor designs that accommodate suture sliding. This technique also utilizes a self-retaining hand-tied knot construct to facilitate preventing knots from migrating toward the femoral head or joint space.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Early results using injectable autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) for the treatment of full thickness acetabular cartilage defects have been promising. However, so far there is no information on radiological results after injectable ACI using spheroids. The purpose of this sturdy was to (1) investigate the quality of tissue repair on MRI and (2) investigate the correlation between the MRI results and clinical results at a minimum follow-up of 24 months after third generation ACI in full thickness acetabular cartilage defects. It was hypothesized that ACI shows good MRI results in patients with large full thickness acetabular cartilage defects 24 months after surgery. It was also hypothesized that there is a correlation between postoperative clinical and MRI morphological results at a minimum follow-up of 24 months. STUDY DESIGN Retrospective case series. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with ACI for full thickness acetabular cartilage defects > 2 cm2 were evaluated by preoperative and postoperative clinical scoring tools including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), the International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33), and the Subjective Hip Value (SHV) as well as a high resolution indirect arthro-MRI 24 months after surgery utilizing an identical imaging protocol for all patients. The magnetic resonance observation of cartilage repair tissue (MOCART) scoring system was used to classify the repair tissue on MRI. Demographic patient data was evaluated for influencing factors for pre- and postoperative clinical as well as radiological results. RESULTS Thirty six consecutive patients (5 women/31 men, average age 32.9 years) had undergone two stage ACI procedure. The average size of the cartilage defect was 5.0 (2-6) cm2. The average follow-up was 29.9 (24-42) months. Four patients were not available for the final follow-up (follow-up rate 89%). The postoperative average MOCART score was 82.2 (± 14.2). MOCART score showed medium correlation of the item defect fill and the postoperative mHHS (r = 0.384, p = 0.043). There was no correlation of the other items or the total score with postoperative results. The patients showed significant improvement in the outcome measurements between preoperative and postoperative in the mHHS, the iHOT-33, and the SHV. CONCLUSIONS Despite the large acetabular cartilage defects included in this study, ACI showed good MRI results with complete defect fill in 87.5% after a minimum 24-month follow-up. Statistically significant correlation of MRI and clinical results could only be seen with the item defect fill. Further research with longer follow-up is needed to evaluate the long-term results of ACI in acetabular cartilage defects.

Abstract
Classic techniques in arthroscopic hip labral repair use circumferential or intrasubstance suture secured with anchors typically placed behind the labrum (capsular side). The primary goal of labral repair is to re-establish the hip suction seal and is often achieved via fixation techniques that invert viable labral tissue to restore or improve contact with the femoral head. Many repair techniques use only 1 suture limb either passed circumferentially around the labrum or passed in an intrasubstance manner, resulting in smaller purchase of labral tissue and lack of a strong inverting vector. In some cases, this may evert the labral tissue, compromising the suction seal. We describe a technique in which both suture limbs are passed in a mattress, figure-of-8 configuration, through the labral tissue, and tied on the capsular side to yield an inverting, double-limb repair. Therefore, each anchor results in a wider, more impactful repair footprint while reliably inverting the labral tissue.

Abstract
BACKGROUND While labral repair has been widely adopted as the first line treatment for labral injury during hip arthroscopy, there is no widespread consensus on the procedural technique, including the number of anchors that should be used to avoid recurrent instability and revision surgery. PURPOSE To determine if anchor density can predict patient-reported outcomes after arthroscopic labral repair in the hip. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients aged 18 to 50 years who underwent primary hip arthroscopic surgery with labral repair between January 2011 and December 2016 were identified from a prospectively collected database. Exclusion criteria consisted of previous ipsilateral surgery, osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade >1), and severe cartilage defects (Outerbridge grade III/IV) or concomitant labral reconstruction, capsular reconstruction, or microfracture. Minimum 2-year patient-reported outcomes (modified Harris Hip Score [mHHS], Hip Outcome Score [HOS]-Activities of Daily Living [ADL], HOS-Sport Specific Subscale [SSS], 12-Item Short Form Health Survey [SF-12]), rates of achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) for each score, revision surgery rate, and rate of conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were compared based on anchor density (number of anchors per millimeter of labral tear). RESULTS A total of 634 hips (575 patients) with a mean age of 30.4 ± 9.5 years (range, 18.0-49.9 years) met inclusion criteria. The mean labral tear size was 31 ± 11 mm (range, 2-70 mm) with a median number of anchors used for labral repair of 3 (range, 1-7) and mean anchor density of 0.11 ± 0.08 anchors (range, 0.03-1.33) per millimeter of labral tear. Hips with a minimum 2-year follow-up (451/634 [71.1%]) had significant improvements on the mHHS, HOS-ADL, HOS-SSS, and SF-12 Physical Component Summary (P < .001 for all). There was no significant correlation detected between anchor density or number of anchors used and postoperative scores (correlation coefficient range, -0.05 to 0.17; P > .05 for all). The rate of revision surgery was 6.4% (28 patients), with 8 hips found to have labral tears and/or deficiency on revision. Additionally, 6 hips (1.3%) had to undergo THA at a mean of 3.6 ± 2.1 years (range, 2.0-5.5 years). CONCLUSION Anchor density did not have a correlation with postoperative outcomes, achieving the MCID or PASS, revision hip arthroscopic surgery, complications, or conversion to THA.

Abstract
Purpose To review short-term functional outcomes in patients who underwent hip arthroscopy and to compare their outcomes to those of a demographically similar cohort who underwent total hip arthroplasty (THA). Methods Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed for patients undergoing hip arthroscopy (SCOPE) between April 2008 and October 2015. SCOPE patients were included if they were ≥35 years, had preoperative and postoperative 2-year follow-up, and had no prior hip condition or ipsilateral hip surgery. SCOPE patients were matched 1:1 to a demographically similar cohort of patients who underwent THA at our institution. Matching criteria included similar age (within 5 years), gender, and body mass index (within 5). SCOPE patients were assessed with modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), non-arthritic hip score, and visual analogue scale (VAS). THA patients were assessed with mHHS, forgotten joint score, and VAS. Results Sixty-seven patients were included in each cohort. Patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for management of labral tears achieved nearly equivalent mHHS, Health Survey Short Form (SF-12) Mental, SF-12 Physical, Veterans RAND 12 Item Health Survey (VR-12) Mental, VR-12 Physical scores at latest follow-up compared to demographically similar patients who underwent THA. There was no significant difference in mHHS scores (SCOPE = 82.9 ± 16.4 vs THA = 87.3 ± 15, P = .095) between the 2 group groups. In addition, average patient satisfaction on a 10-point scale was 8.1 for the SCOPE cohort and 8.8 for the THA cohort (P = .052). Conclusions Our results show that hip arthroscopy, when performed in patients with the appropriate indications, can lead to comparably excellent outcomes as total hip arthroplasty with significant pain relief at short term follow-up. Level of Evidence Level III, retrospective cohort study.

Abstract
AIMS To compare the diagnostic accuracy of investigators from different specialities (radiologists and orthopaedic surgeons) with varying levels of experience of 1.5 T direct magnetic resonance arthrography (dMRA) against intraoperative findings in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS A total of 272 patients were evaluated with dMRA and subsequent hip arthroscopy. The dMRA images were evaluated independently by two non-hip-arthroscopy-trained orthopaedic surgeons, two fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists, and two hip-arthroscopy-trained orthopaedic surgeons. The radiological diagnoses were compared with the intraoperative findings. RESULTS Hip arthroscopy revealed labral pathologies in 218 (79%) and acetabular chondral lesions in 190 (69%) hips. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV) and accuracy for evaluating the acetabular labral pathologies were 79%, 18%, 79%, 18%, and 66% (non-hip-arthroscopy trained orthopaedic surgeons), 83%, 36%, 83%, 36%, and 74% (fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists), and 88%, 53%, 88%, 54% and 81% (hip-arthroscopy trained orthopaedic surgeons). The sensitivity, specificity, PPV, NPV and accuracy of dMRA for assessing the acetabular chondral damage were 81%, 36%, 71%, 50%, and 66% (non-hip-arthroscopy trained orthopaedic surgeons), 84%, 38%, 75%, 52%, and 70% (fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists), and 91%, 51%, 81%, 73%, and 79% (hip-arthroscopy trained orthopaedic surgeons). The hip-arthroscopy trained orthopaedic surgeons displayed the highest percentage of correctly diagnosed labral pathologies and acetabular chondral lesions, which is significantly higher than the other two investigator groups (p < 0.05). CONCLUSION The accuracy of dMRA on detecting labral pathologies or acetabular chondral lesions depends on the examiner and its level of experience in hip arthroscopy. The highest values are found for the hip-arthroscopy-trained orthopaedic surgeons. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Retrospective cohort study; III.

Abstract
Although the hip joint is regarded as inherently stable, hip pain and injuries caused by traumatic/non-traumatic hip instability are relatively common in active individuals. A comprehensive understanding of hip anatomy may provide better insight into the relationships between hip stability and clinical problems. In this review, we present our recent findings on the hip morphological characteristics, especially focusing on the intramuscular tendon of the gluteus medius tendon and its insertion sites, hip capsular attachment on the anterosuperior region of the acetabular margin, and composition of the iliofemoral ligament. We further discussed the hip stabilization mechanism based on these findings. The characteristics of the gluteus medius tendon suggest that even a single muscle has multiple functional subunits within the muscle. In addition, the characteristics of the hip capsular attachment suggest that the width of the capsular attachment is wider than previously reported, and its wide area shows adaptive morphology to mechanical stress, such as bony impression and distribution of the fibrocartilage. The composition of the iliofemoral ligament and its relation to periarticular structures suggest that some ligaments should be defined based on the pericapsular structures, such as the joint capsule, tendon, and aponeurosis, and also have the ability to dynamically coordinate joint stability. These anatomical perspectives provide a better understanding of the hip stabilization mechanism, and a biomechanical study or an in vivo imaging study, considering these perspectives, is expected in the future.

Abstract
Surgical management of iliopsoas pathology that fails conservative treatment is controversial. Potential complications following iliopsoas tenotomy include recurrent painful internal snapping, postoperative pain, and hip flexor weakness. Concerns are even greater in dysplastic patients, in whom the iliopsoas may play a role as an anteromedial hip stabilizer. Although data demonstrate arthroscopic iliopsoas tenotomy for painful internal snapping as safe and effective, its use has declined for the reasons stated above. On the other hand, procedures such as capsular plication with inferior shift and anatomic labral repair, augmentation, and reconstruction have made it possible to restore the primary stabilizers in many cases of hip instability. In these cases, iliopsoas fractional lengthening (IFL) with avoidance of collateral damage to the musculature or capsule can successfully treat painful internal snapping hip. We recommend iliopsoas lengthening when (1) there is painful internal snapping, (2) IFL can be performed without collateral damage, (3) the primary soft tissue stabilizers can be restored or augmented, and (4) there is no bony morphology likely to cause continued instability.

Arthroscopy 2021; 37:1845-1852. [PMID: 33539977 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2021.01.040] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/18/2020] [Revised: 01/09/2021] [Accepted: 01/12/2021] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare patient-reported outcomes (PROs) in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome and external snapping hip (ESH) treated with hip arthroscopy with or without endoscopic iliotibial band (ITB) release. METHODS Retrospective review case series with both FAI syndrome and ESH who underwent surgical treatment under same indications. According to the primary operation that was determined by patients themselves, the patients undergoing ITB release during hip arthroscopy for FAI syndrome were enrolled in the ITB-R group, and patients undergoing hip arthroscopy without ITB release were enrolled in non-ITB-R group. Patients with dysplasia, severe osteoarthritis, revision, and bilateral surgery were excluded. PROs including international Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), visual analog scale for pain (VAS-pain) and VAS-satisfaction, and the rates of achieving minimal clinically important difference, patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS), and substantial clinical benefit for the PROs at 2 years operatively were comparative analyzed. RESULTS The prevalence of ESH in patients with FAI syndrome who underwent hip arthroscopy in our institution was 4.9% (30 of 612 hips). The mean age at the time of surgery was 33.1 ± 6.9 years (range 22-48 years). After exclusion, 16 patients (16 hips) were enrolled into ITB-R group and 11 patients (11 hips) enrolled into non-ITB-R group. PROs including iHOT-33, mHHS, VAS-pain, and VAS-satisfaction in patients in ITB-R group were better than that in non-ITB-R group at 2 years postoperatively (P = .013, .016, .002, and .005, respectively). The rates of achieving PASS for mHHS, PASS for VAS-pain, and substantial clinical benefit for iHOT-33 of patients in ITB-R group were significantly better than that in non-ITB-R group (P = .009, .006, and .027, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Patients with both FAI syndrome and ESH undergoing ITB release during hip arthroscopy had better PROs than those undergoing hip arthroscopy without ITB release. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip arthroscopy is rapidly advancing and increasingly commonly performed. The most common surgery after arthroscopy is total hip arthroplasty (THA), which unfortunately occurs within 2 years of arthroscopy in up to 10% of patients. Predictive models for conversion to THA, such as that proposed by Redmond et al, have potentially substantial value in perioperative counseling and decreasing early arthroscopy failures; however, these models need to be externally validated to demonstrate broad applicability. PURPOSE To utilize an independent, prospectively collected database to externally validate a previously published risk calculator by determining its accuracy in predicting conversion of hip arthroscopy to THA at a minimum 2-year follow-up. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study (diagnosis); Level of evidence, 1. METHODS Hip arthroscopies performed at a single center between November 2015 and March 2017 were reviewed. Patients were assessed pre- and intraoperatively for components of the THA risk score studied-namely, age, modified Harris Hip Score, lateral center-edge angle, revision procedure, femoral version, and femoral and acetabular Outerbridge scores-and followed for a minimum of 2 years. Conversion to THA was determined along with the risk score's receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve and Brier score calibration characteristics. RESULTS A total of 187 patients (43 men, 144 women, mean age, 36.0 ± 12.4 years) underwent hip arthroscopy and were followed for a mean of 2.9 ± 0.85 years (range, 2.0-5.5 years), with 13 patients (7%) converting to THA at a mean of 1.6 ± 0.9 years. Patients who converted to THA had a mean predicted arthroplasty risk of 22.6% ± 12.0%, compared with patients who remained arthroplasty-free with a predicted risk of 4.6% ± 5.3% (P < .01). The Brier score for the calculator was 0.04 (P = .53), which was not statistically different from ideal calibration, and the calculator demonstrated a satisfactory area under the curve of 0.894 (P < .001). CONCLUSION This external validation study supported our hypothesis in that the THA risk score described by Redmond et al was found to accurately predict which patients undergoing hip arthroscopy were at risk for converting to subsequent arthroplasty, with satisfactory discriminatory, ROC curve, and Brier score calibration characteristics. These findings are important in that they provide surgeons with validated tools to identify the patients at greatest risk for failure after hip arthroscopy and assist in perioperative counseling and decision making.

Decreased Hip Labral Width Measured via Preoperative Magnetic Resonance Imaging Is Associated With Inferior Outcomes for Arthroscopic Labral Repair for Femoroacetabular Impingement. Arthroscopy 2021; 37:98-107. [PMID: 32828937 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.08.006] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/14/2019] [Revised: 08/08/2020] [Accepted: 08/11/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To determine the association between labral width as measured on preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and hip-specific validated patient self-reported outcomes at a minimum of 2 years' follow-up. METHODS We performed an institutional review board-approved retrospective review of prospectively gathered hip arthroscopy patients from 2010 to 2017. The inclusion criteria were defined as patients aged 18 to 65 years with radiographic evidence of femoroacetabular impingement who underwent a primary labral repair and had a minimum of 2 years' clinical follow-up. The exclusion criteria were defined as inadequate preoperative imaging, prior hip surgery, Tönnis grade 1 or higher, or lateral center-edge angle lower than 25°. An a priori power analysis was performed. MRI measurements of labral width were conducted by 2 blinded, musculoskeletal fellowship-trained radiologists at standardized "clock-face" locations using a previously validated technique. Outcomes were assessed using the Harris Hip Score (HHS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Non-arthritic Hip Score (NAHS). For the mHHS, scores of 8 and 74 were used to define the minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state, respectively. Patients were divided into groups by a labral width less than 1 SD below the mean (hypoplastic) or widths above 1 SD below the mean. Statistical analysis was performed using linear and polynomial regression; the Mann-Whitney U, χ2, and Fisher exact tests; and intraclass correlation coefficient testing. RESULTS A total of 103 patients (107 hips) met the inclusion criteria (mean age, 39.4 ± 17 years; body mass index, 25.0 ± 4; 51% right sided; 68% female patients; mean follow-up, 76.5 ± 19.1 months [range, 30.0-113.0 months]). Mean labral width at the 11:30 clock-face position (indirect rectus), 3-o'clock position (psoas U), and 1:30 clock-face position (point halfway between the 2 aforementioned positions) was 7.1 ± 2.2 mm, 7.0 ± 2.0 mm, and 5.5 ± 1.9 mm, respectively. Intraclass correlation coefficient agreements were good to excellent between readers at all positions (0.83-0.91, P < .001). The preoperative HHS, mHHS, and NAHS were not statistically significantly different (P > .05) between the 2 groups. Sex, laterality, and body mass index were not predictive of outcomes (P > .05). The postoperative HHS, mHHS, and NAHS were found to be significantly lower in the hypoplastic group at each location tested (P < .01), including the mHHS at the 11:30 clock-face position (69 vs 87), 3-o'clock position (70 vs 87), and 1:30 clock-face position (71 vs 87). The proportion of patients with hypoplastic labra who reached the minimal clinically important difference was significantly lower (P < .001) at the 11:30 clock-face position (50% vs 91%), 3-o'clock position (56% vs 90%), and 1:30 clock-face position (58% vs 91%) in comparison to the non-hypoplastic labrum group. The proportion of patients with hypoplastic labra above the patient acceptable symptomatic state was significantly lower (P < .001) at the 11:30 clock-face position (44% vs 83%), 3-o'clock position (37.5% vs 84%), and 1:30 clock-face position (42% vs 85%) in comparison to the non-hypoplastic labrum group. Linear regression modeling was not significant at any position (P > .05). Polynomial regression was significant at the 11:30 clock-face position (R2 = 0.23, P < .001), 3-o'clock position (R2 = 0.17, P < .001), and 1:30 clock-face position (R2 = 0.26, P < .004). CONCLUSIONS Hip labral width less than 1 SD below the mean measured via preoperative MRI was associated with significantly worse functional outcomes after arthroscopic labral repair and treatment of femoroacetabular impingement. The negative relation between labral width and outcomes may be nonlinear. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, case series with subgroup analysis.

Circumferential Labral Reconstruction for Irreparable Labral Tears in the Primary Setting: Minimum 2-Year Outcomes With a Nested Matched-Pair Labral Repair Control Group. Arthroscopy 2020; 36:2583-2597. [PMID: 32109574 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.02.014] [Citation(s) in RCA: 57] [Impact Index Per Article: 14.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/09/2019] [Revised: 02/04/2020] [Accepted: 02/05/2020] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE (1) To report minimum 2-year patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores of primary circumferential acetabular labral reconstruction using anterior tibialis allograft and the knotless pull-through technique in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and irreparable labral tears and (2) to compare these PROs with a matched-pair primary labral repair group. METHODS Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. Patients were included if they underwent primary circumferential labral reconstruction with anterior tibialis tendon allograft during February 2016 to April 2017 for irreparable labral tears and FAIS and had preoperative and minimum 2-year follow-up for modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale, Non-arthritic Hip Score, International Hip Outcome Tool 12 (iHOT-12), 12-Item Short Form Health Survey physical component and mental component, Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey physical component and mental component, and visual analog scale for pain. The exclusion criteria were previous ipsilateral hip conditions or surgical procedures, Tönnis grade 2 or higher, or dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle ≤ 18°). Labral tears were considered irreparable if the labrum appeared (1) to be mostly or completely calcified and (2) to be inadequate (nonviable) and not amenable for labral repair. The reconstruction group was matched 1:3 based on age, sex, and body mass index to a benchmark control group of hips undergoing labral repair from the same period. The minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state for the mHHS and iHOT-12 score were calculated. RESULTS A total of 37 hips (37 patients) underwent circumferential labral reconstruction. There were 19 female patients (51.4%) and 18 male patients (48.6%). The mean age was 45.6 ± 11.6 years, and the average body mass index was 27.1 ± 5. At minimum 2-year follow-up, the circumferential labral reconstruction group showed statistically significant improvements in the mHHS, Non-arthritic Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale, iHOT-12 score, and visual analog scale score. All hips in the reconstruction group were successfully matched to 111 labral repair hips. At latest follow-up, improvements in all PROs between the 2 groups were comparable. The revision rates were 0% and 3.6% in the reconstruction and repair groups, respectively. CONCLUSIONS After primary hip arthroscopy, primary circumferential labral reconstruction using anterior tibialis allograft and the knotless pull-through technique in the setting of FAIS and irreparable labral tears resulted in significant improvements in several PROs at minimum 2-year follow-up and high patient satisfaction. Primary circumferential labral reconstruction reached comparable functional outcomes to those of a benchmark matched-pair primary labral repair control group.

Abstract
In the setting of femoroacetabular impingement, the acetabular labrum may be torn or pathologic, and it must be surgically repaired to restore the native suction seal and hip function. However, the current methods of arthroscopic suture passage commonly result in some degree of disruption of the chondrolabral junction, with penetration and shuttling of the repair sutures. Novel instrumentation and surgical techniques have aimed to repair the acetabular labrum with decreased violation of the intrasubstance fibers to provide anatomic eversion/inversion of the labrum to restore the suction seal. In this Technical Note, we describe a method of suture passage through the use of a self-grasping suture-passing device that allows for anatomic labral repair while maintaining the chondrolabral junction as well as minimizing iatrogenic damage the labrum intrasubstance fibers.

Abstract
PURPOSE To assess whether labral size is predictive of labral repair failure or shows an association with patient outcomes after hip arthroscopy. METHODS We performed a retrospective chart review of patients who underwent arthroscopic hip labral repair. Labral size was measured in 4 quadrants with an arthroscopic probe. The average size across torn labral segments was assessed for failure as determined by the change in patient-reported outcomes, the rate at which subjects achieved the minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state, and the need for additional surgery. Outcomes were evaluated for any continuous correlation as well as significant differences between the middle 50% of labral sizes and classes of labral sizes derived from upper and lower quartile and decile ranges. Included hips were those from patients aged between 18 and 55 years with 2-year postoperative follow-up and lateral center-edge angles between 25° and 40°. RESULTS The study included 571 hips. Labral width did not show a significant difference between hips requiring revision and those not requiring revision (P = .4054). No significant correlation was found between labral width and the change in the International Hip Outcome Tool 12 score (R2 = 0.05780), modified Harris Hip Score (R2 = 0.19826), or Nonarthritic Hip Score (R2 = 0.23543) from preoperatively to 2 years postoperatively. Hips with labral sizes in the upper decile of our cohort showed significantly decreased improvement in the International Hip Outcome Tool 12 score (P = .0287) and Nonarthritic Hip Score (P = .0490) compared with the middle 50% of labral sizes. No statistically significant difference was found in the rate at which the groups achieved the minimal clinically important difference or patient acceptable symptomatic state. CONCLUSIONS Hypertrophic labra in the largest 10th percentile showed lower postoperative outcome scores. However, no detectable clinical benefit was found in terms of patient-perceived clinical difference or acceptable symptomatic state. For most patients, labral size does not appear to significantly alter patient outcomes or the need for arthroplasty. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level IV, retrospective case series.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Labral tears are the most common abnormalities in patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery. Appropriate management is crucial, as it has been shown that better overall outcomes can be achieved with labral restoration. PURPOSE To report the patient-reported outcomes (PROs) at minimum 2-year follow-up of patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Data were prospectively collected for patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for FAIS for labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique. Patients were excluded if they had prior hip conditions, prior ipsilateral surgery, Tönnis grade >1, a lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) <25°, or workers' compensation claims. Preoperative and postoperative scores at minimum 2-year follow-up were recorded for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain. The proportion of patients who achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) or patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) for the mHHS, HOS-SSS, and iHOT-12 were also reported. RESULTS A total of 309 hips were included. The mean patient age was 36.2 years (range, 12.8-75.9 years). The mean preoperative LCEA and alpha angle were 31.9° and 57.1°, respectively. A significant improvement on the mHHS (62.6 ± 15.7 preoperatively vs 86.9 ± 16.2 at 2-year follow-up), NAHS (63.1 ± 16.7 vs 86.1 ± 16.7), and HOS-SSS (39.8 ± 22.0 vs 74.2 ± 27.3) was found (P < .001 for all). A significant decrease was shown for VAS scores (P < .001). Also, 78.6% and 82.2% of patients achieved the MCID and PASS for the mHHS, respectively; 60.8% and 69.9% of patients met the MCID and PASS for the HOS-SSS, respectively; and the MCID for the iHOT-12 was met by 77.3% of patients. CONCLUSION In the setting of FAIS and labral tears, patients who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique demonstrated significant improvement in several validated PRO measures, the VAS pain score, and patient satisfaction at a minimum 2 years of follow-up. Based on this evidence, labral tear repair using the knotless controlled-tension anatomic technique seems to be a safe option.

A Multicenter Study of Radiographic Measures Predicting Failure of Arthroscopy in Borderline Hip Dysplasia: Beware of the Tönnis Angle. Am J Sports Med 2020; 48:1608-1615.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip arthroscopy has been previously demonstrated to be an effective treatment for adult mild hip dysplasia. There are many radiographic parameters used to classify hip dysplasia, but to date few studies have demonstrated which parameters are of most importance for predicting surgical outcomes. PURPOSE To identify preoperative radiographic parameters that are associated with poor outcomes in the arthroscopic treatment of adult mild hip dysplasia. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Radiographic analysis was performed in patients with mild hip dysplasia who underwent arthroscopic surgery between 2009 and 2015. Preoperative radiographic measurements included lateral center edge angle, Tönnis angle, neck shaft angle, anterior center edge angle, alpha angle, femoral head extrusion index, and acetabular depth-to-width ratio. Failure was defined as failure to achieve the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) utilizing the modified Harris Hip Score or as the need for secondary operation. The equal variance t test was used to analyze radiographic parameters. Statistical significance was determined using a P value of .05. RESULTS A total of 373 hips underwent analysis with an average follow-up of 41 months (range, 24-102 months). Of these, 46 hips (12%) required secondary operation, and 95 (25%) failed to meet the MCID. The overall failure rate was 32.4%. There was no single measurement or combination thereof associated with failure to reach the MCID. Higher preoperative Tönnis angles were associated with secondary operation, with a mean of 6.7° (95% CI, 5.3°-8.1°) in the secondary operation group versus 4.8° (95% CI, 4.4°-5.3°) in the nonsecondary operation group (P = .006). The odds ratio was 1.12 (95% CI, 1.0-1.2; P = .05) per degree increase in Tönnis angle for secondary operation. In patients with a Tönnis angle >10°, 84% required secondary operation. CONCLUSION Higher Tönnis angles portend a higher risk for revision surgery. The probability of secondary operation was increased by a magnitude of 1.12 with each degree increase in the Tönnis angle. In patients with a Tönnis angle >10°, 84% required a secondary operation.

Zimmerer A, Schneider MM, Nietschke R, Miehlke W, Sobau C. Is Hip Arthroscopy an Adequate Therapy for the Borderline Dysplastic Hip? Correlation Between Radiologic Findings and Clinical Outcomes. Orthop J Sports Med 2020; 8:2325967120920851. [PMID: 32548181 PMCID: PMC7249583 DOI: 10.1177/2325967120920851] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2020] [Accepted: 02/10/2020] [Indexed: 12/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Background Recent studies have shown that assessment of the lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) between 18° and 25° is not sufficient to adequately classify mildly dysplastic hips and that further radiological features should be considered. However, no correlation between different morphologic features and clinical outcomes has been investigated so far. Purpose To analyze the clinical outcomes of patients with different subtypes of borderline dysplastic hips who underwent arthroscopic surgery. Study Design Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods We examined patients with an LCEA between 18° and 25° who underwent arthroscopic treatment for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome between January 2015 and December 2016. A hierarchical cluster analysis was performed to identify hip morphologic subtypes according to radiographic parameters, including the LCEA, femoro-epiphyseal acetabular roof (FEAR) index, anterior and posterior wall indices (AWI and PWI), Tönnis angle, alpha angle, and femoral neck-shaft angle. In addition, the International Hip Outcome Tool 12 (iHOT-12) and a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain were applied preoperatively and at follow-up, and the results were compared among the different clusters. Previously reported minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) values were used to determine clinically significant improvements. Results A total of 40 patients were identified. Of these, 36 patients were available for evaluation at a mean follow-up of 43.8 months. In total, 4 sex-independent clusters with different morphologic patterns of the hip were identified: cluster 1, unstable anterolateral deficiency (FEAR index >2°, AWI <0.35); cluster 2, stable anterolateral deficiency (FEAR index <2°, AWI <0.35); cluster 3, stable lateral deficiency (FEAR index >2°, normal AWI and PWI); and cluster 4, stable posterolateral deficiency (FEAR index <2°, PWI <0.85). At follow-up, clusters 1, 2, and 3 showed significantly improved iHOT-12 (P < .0001) and VAS pain (P < .0001) scores, and cluster 4 showed no significant improvements. The MCID of 15.2 points was achieved by all patients in clusters 2 and 3, by 63% of patients in cluster 1, and by 23% of patients in cluster 4. Clusters 2 and 3 differed significantly from clusters 1 and 4 (P = .02). A postoperative PASS score of 60 was achieved by all patients in cluster 3, by 86% of patients in cluster 2, by 63% of patients in cluster 1, and by 20% of patients in cluster 4. The differences between the groups were statistically significant (P = .01). Conclusion Arthroscopic surgery yielded good results in the treatment of stable borderline hip dysplasia with anterolateral and lateral deficiency. In contrast, borderline hip dysplasia with acetabular retroversion showed no improvements after arthroscopic therapy. This study underlines the need for an accurate analysis of all possible radiological signs to adequately classify borderline dysplastic hips.

The Evolution of Hip Arthroscopy: What Has Changed Since 2008-A Single Surgeon's Experience. Arthroscopy 2020; 36:761-772. [PMID: 31919020 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2019.10.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 17] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2019] [Revised: 10/02/2019] [Accepted: 10/03/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare a single surgeon's first 200 cases of hip arthroscopy with the last 200 cases regarding patient demographic characteristics, indications for surgery, intraoperative findings, procedures performed, and patient-reported outcomes. METHODS Data were reviewed for all patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy between February 2008 and August 2016 performed by a single surgeon. Of the 3,319 patients who underwent hip-preservation surgery during the study period, the first 200 (group A) and last 200 (group B) eligible for minimum 2-year follow-up were included in our analysis. RESULTS Follow-up was available for 187 of 200 patients (93.5%) and 189 of 200 patients (94.5%) in groups A and B, respectively. The groups were similar in age, sex, and body mass index (P > .05). Group A included significantly more patients with Tönnis grade 1 (37% vs 21%, P < .001). Group B consisted of significantly more (P < .001) labral reconstructions (10.2% vs 0%), capsular closures (72.7% vs 26.2%), and gluteus medius repairs (18.2% vs 3.2%). Femoroplasty was performed for smaller cam lesions in group B, resulting in smaller postoperative alpha angles (45.7° ± 7.9° vs 42.4° ± 6.3°, P < .001). Group B exhibited significantly higher patient-reported outcomes at minimum 2-year follow-up (P < .05). In addition, in group B, greater proportions of patients achieved the minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state (P < .05). CONCLUSIONS This study shows the noteworthy evolution in the management of the prearthritic adult hip occurring between 2008 and 2016. This includes improvements in preoperative patient evaluation and patient selection. In addition, the proportion of patients undergoing labral reconstruction, capsular plication, and femoroplasty has increased significantly. These developments, as well as increased surgical experience, may have contributed to improved surgical outcomes. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative trial.

A Midterm Analysis. Arthroscopy 2019; 35:3035-3046. [PMID: 31629582 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2019.03.046] [Citation(s) in RCA: 22] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/13/2018] [Revised: 03/13/2019] [Accepted: 03/19/2019] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To report 5-year outcomes of arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome in patients with femoral retroversion compared with a control group of patients with normal femoral anteversion. METHODS Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed for all patients who underwent hip arthroscopy between August 2008 and April 2013. Patients were included in analysis if they underwent hip arthroscopy during this period and had femoral version ≤0° calculated using magnetic resonance imaging. Exclusion criteria included prior ipsilateral hip conditions/surgeries or Tönnis grade >1. These patients were pair matched with patients having femoral anteversion between 10° and 20° based on gender, body mass index ± 10, and age ± 10 years. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were collected at 3 months and 1 year postoperatively and annually thereafter. An a priori power analysis was performed. RESULTS A total of 59 patients were identified as the experimental group out of 69 eligible for inclusion (86%). All 59 patients were matched, with a mean age of 37.4 years and mean body mass index of 26.9. Twenty patients were female, and 39 were male. These patients demonstrated significant improvement from their preoperative state in all patient-reported outcomes and visual analog score scores (P < .001). Thirty-eight patients met the threshold for minimal clinically important difference, and 35 achieved patient acceptable symptomatic state for the modified Harris Hip Score questionnaire. Seven patients converted to total hip replacement. No differences were noted between retroverted and control patients in any of the outcome measures collected, in pain or satisfaction ratings, in the frequency of or duration to secondary surgeries or in complication rate (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS Patients with femoral retroversion demonstrated significantly higher outcomes at minimum 5-year follow-up after undergoing arthroscopic hip surgery. These outcomes were not different from those of patients with normal femoral version. While femoral retroversion should not be considered a contraindication to hip arthroscopy, it should be carefully considered as a factor in patient selection and surgical planning. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative study.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Despite the fact that many surgeons perform partial capsular detachment from the anterosuperior aspect of the acetabulum to correct acetabular deformities during hip arthroscopy, few studies have focused on whether these detachments influence hip joint stability. The aim of this study was to investigate the capsular attachment on the anterosuperior aspect of the acetabulum. We hypothesized that the attachment on the inferior aspect of the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) is wide and fibrocartilaginous and might have a substantial role in hip joint stability. METHODS Fifteen hips from 9 cadavers of Japanese donors were analyzed. Eleven hips were analyzed macroscopically, and the other 4 were analyzed histologically. In all specimens, the 3-dimensional morphology of the acetabulum and AIIS was examined using micro-computed tomography (micro-CT). RESULTS Macroscopic analysis showed that the widths of the capsular attachments varied according to the location, and the attachment width on the inferior edge of the AIIS was significantly larger than that on the anterosuperior aspect of the acetabulum. Moreover, the capsular attachment on the inferior edge of the AIIS corresponded with the impression, which was identified by micro-CT. Histological analysis revealed that the hip joint capsule on the inferior edge of the AIIS attached to the acetabulum adjacent to the proximal margin of the labrum. In addition, the hip joint capsule attached to the inferior edge of the AIIS via the fibrocartilage. CONCLUSIONS The capsular attachment on the inferior edge of the AIIS was characterized by an osseous impression, large attachment width, and distributed fibrocartilage. CLINICAL RELEVANCE It appeared that the capsular attachment on the inferior edge of the AIIS was highly adaptive to mechanical stress, on the basis of its osseous impression, attachment width, and histological features. Anatomical knowledge of the capsular attachment on the inferior edge of the AIIS provides a better understanding of the pathological condition of hip joint instability.

Abstract
The 'upper deck' view is an arthroscopic perspective which visualizes the labral-osseous junction without detachment of the chondro-labral junction. The aim of this study was to evaluate the utility of the 'upper deck' view in preventing incomplete acetabuloplasty. Data were prospectively collected from September 2016 to November 2016 for all hip arthroscopies. We recorded the amount and clock-face of residual pincer-lesion acetabular bone resected using the 'upper deck' view. We noted whether this residual pincer-lesion acetabular bone was visible fluoroscopically, as well as the amount and clock-face of the overall acetabuloplasty. During the study period, 87 hip arthroscopies were performed; 50 met the inclusion criteria. Forty-six (92%) patients had residual pincer-lesion acetabular bone after completion of the acetabuloplasty resected from the bird's eye view. In all such cases the residual pincer-lesion acetabular bone was not visible under fluoroscopy and could only be detected using this specific view. The average maximum resection for the acetabuloplasty was 2.1 ± 0.9 and 1.4 ± 0.5 mm (P = 0.16) for resection of residual pincer-lesion acetabular bone. The 'upper deck' view provides the ability to decrease the risk of incomplete acetabuloplasty, due to the high likelihood (92%) of a residual beak of pincer-lesion acetabular bone when this view is not used during rim trimming.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip arthroscopy is becoming more advanced and commonly performed. However, significant controversy exists regarding whether high-grade acetabular cartilage lesions should be treated with debridement/abrasion or microfracture. In addition, patients treated with microfracture are subject to extended protected weightbearing rehabilitation to mitigate risk of subchondral plate fracture and to protect fibrocartilage tissue formation. PURPOSE To determine the midterm patient-reported outcomes and failure rate of patients with grade 3 and 4 acetabular labrum articular disruption (ALAD) lesions managed with debridement/abrasion or microfracture. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Primary arthroscopic labral repair cases at 2 centers from November 2008 to April 2016 were reviewed for patients aged <55 years with unipolar ALAD grade 3 and 4 chondrolabral acetabular delamination. Patients undergoing microfracture and debridement/abrasion were compared using the visual analog pain scale (VAS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Hip Outcome Score-Sports-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS) to determine predictors of outcomes and failure. RESULTS A total of 113 hips in 110 patients (66 males, 44 females; mean age, 34.5 ± 1.1 years) undergoing debridement/abrasion (n = 82) or microfracture (n = 31) were followed for a mean of 4.9 years (range, 2.0-8.5 years). Lesion size was not statistically different between the debridement/abrasion (1.3 ± 1.0 cm2) and microfracture cohorts (1.4 ± 1.0 cm2) ( P = .47). Patients undergoing debridement/abrasion achieved 3.6-point mean improvements in VAS ( P < .01), 21.2-point improvements in mHHS ( P < .01), and 25.4-point improvements in HOS-SSS ( P < .01), which were not significantly different from those observed in microfracture patients ( P≥ .20). The 5-year rate of survival free of revision surgery was 84.0% in the debridement/abrasion group and 85.6% in the microfracture group ( P = .78). The cartilage treatment technique was found not to be predictive of revision risk during both univariate (hazard ratio [HR], 1.01; P = .98) and multivariate (HR, 0.93; P = .90) analysis accounting for patient age, lesion grade, and acetabular coverage. CONCLUSION Patients undergoing debridement/abrasion of high-grade unipolar acetabular cartilage lesions demonstrate similar outcome scores and revision rates compared with those of patients undergoing microfracture. These outcomes support the consideration of preferential debridement/abrasion at the discretion of the treating surgeon to optimize recovery while maintaining established positive outcomes after hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
Background: Labral reconstruction has been described as a solution for the irreparable
labrum. Initial techniques employed autografts, while more recent procedures
have utilized allografts. No study, to our knowledge, has compared graft
types. Purpose: To compare outcomes between patients who underwent primary labral
reconstruction with a hamstring allograft versus hamstring autograft. Hypothesis: No significant differences in outcomes will be found between patients who
underwent primary labral reconstruction with an allograft versus
autograft. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Data from September 2010 to March 2015 were reviewed. Inclusion criteria were
primary hip arthroscopic surgery with labral reconstruction using either a
hamstring allograft (ALLO group) or autograft (AUTO group), with minimum
2-year follow-up scores for the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS),
Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score–Sports-Specific Subscale
(HOS-SSS), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain. Exclusion criteria were
previous ipsilateral hip surgery, previous hip conditions, preoperative
Tönnis osteoarthritis grade >1, and workers’ compensation claims.
Significance was set at P = .05. Results: Twenty-nine patients (29 hips) were included (85.3% follow-up). There were 17
patients (17 hips) in the ALLO group and 12 patients (12 hips) in the AUTO
group. All patient-reported outcome scores demonstrated significant
improvements at latest follow-up except for the mHHS for the AUTO group
(P = .064). Comparisons between the ALLO and AUTO
groups at the preoperative and latest follow-up time points showed no
significant differences (preoperative mean [range]: mHHS, 67.5 [33.0-100.0]
and 65.8 [29.0-96.0], respectively [P = .826]; NAHS, 65.6
[26.3-92.5] and 58.5 [35.0-79.0], respectively [P = .322];
HOS-SSS, 43.7 [12.5-100.0] and 40.1 [19.0-78.0], respectively
[P = .707]) (latest follow-up mean [range]: mHHS, 86.4
[56.0-100.0] and 81.4 [57.0-100.0], respectively [P = .46];
NAHS, 87.7 [60.0-100.0] and 82.4 [56.3-100.0], respectively
[P = .396]; HOS-SSS, 81.7 [0.0-100.0] and 70.9
[27.8-100.0], respectively [P = .423]). Conclusion: Primary arthroscopic hip labral reconstruction yielded improvements in
patient-reported outcome scores and high patient satisfaction. In this small
series, no differences were found in clinical outcomes between hamstring
allografts and autografts. Based on these results, hamstring allografts and
autografts may be considered comparable graft choices for primary
reconstruction. Because of the avoidance of donor site morbidity and the
possible increase in patient satisfaction, allografts may be the preferred
choice in a surgical setting when they are accessible.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The success of hip arthroscopy has led to increased application in younger populations. However, hip arthroscopy remains a challenging procedure, and its safety and efficacy in the adolescent population have been controversial. Most existing literature on outcomes in such patients contains only short-term follow-up, and a paucity of evidence is available regarding long-term outcomes in adolescents. PURPOSE To report on clinical outcomes at a minimum 5-year follow-up in patients younger than 18 years who underwent arthroscopic treatment of labral tears. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed on all patients younger than 18 years who underwent hip arthroscopy in a tertiary hip preservation setting at a single institution. Patients were excluded if they had previous ipsilateral hip conditions or surgery. All patients underwent either labral repair or debridement for treatment of a labral tear. Patient-reported outcome measures were recorded at 3 months and at 1, 2, or a minimum of 5 years. These included the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Nonarthritic Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), visual analog scale, and patient satisfaction. Additionally, the abbreviated International Hip Outcome Tool and Short Form Health Survey were collected at latest follow-up. RESULTS The study included 44 hips in 32 patients that underwent arthroscopic labral repair (86.4%) or labral debridement (13.6%) between April 2008 and April 2011, with latest follow-up at a mean of 69.2 months (range, 60.0-89.9 months) postoperatively. The average age at surgery was 16.3 years (range, 14.2-17.9 years), and 39 hips from female patients. Statistically significant improvements were seen in all patient-reported outcome measures from preoperative to minimum 5-year follow-up. Improvements were noted at 1-year follow-up and maintained at minimum 5-year follow-up. At the latest follow-up, the Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State was achieved in 95.5% of patients for the mHHS and 72.7% for the HOS-SSS. Two patients subsequently underwent secondary arthroscopy on the ipsilateral hip; however, the survivorship of all hips was 100%. CONCLUSION Hip arthroscopy for the treatment of labral tears in adolescents remains a technically challenging procedure that should be approached with appropriate caution. The results of the present study on a population treated in a specialized hip preservation center demonstrate that hip arthroscopy is a safe procedure with stable improvement in patient-reported outcome measures at 5 years.

The Effect of Complete Tearing of the Ligamentum Teres in Patients Undergoing Primary Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement and Labral Tears: A Match-Controlled Study. Arthroscopy 2019; 35:80-88. [PMID: 30611371 DOI: 10.1016/j.arthro.2018.07.042] [Citation(s) in RCA: 37] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/29/2018] [Revised: 07/24/2018] [Accepted: 07/30/2018] [Indexed: 02/02/2023]
Abstract
PURPOSE To compare the patient-reported outcomes scores (PROs) of patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral tears, and complete ligamentum teres (LT) tears to a matched-pair control group with intact LTs, as well as to report the relative risk of total hip arthroplasty (THA) conversion. METHODS Data between February 2008 and April 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients undergoing hip arthroscopy included those who had complete LT tear, labral tears, FAI, and minimum 2-year follow-up with modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), International Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12), and visual analog scale (VAS). Patients were excluded for Tönnis osteoarthritis grade >1, previous hip conditions or surgeries, and Worker's Compensation claims. Patients with full LT tears were matched in a 1:3 ratio with patients without LT tears based on age at surgery ± 5 years, sex, body mass index ± 5, capsular treatment, and acetabular Outerbridge grade. Revision surgeries and conversions to THA were documented. Relative risk for conversion to THA was determined (P = .05). RESULTS Eighteen patients (18 hips) had minimum 2-year follow-up and were eligible for matching; as described, each study group patient was matched to 3 control patients, resulting in a size of 18 to 54 patients. PROs showed significant improvement in the complete LT tear group with the exception of the HOS-SSS measure. In the intact LT control group, all PROs significantly improved, with no exception. Based on relative risk, patients with complete LT tears were 3 times more likely to require THA than a matched control group. CONCLUSIONS After hip arthroscopy, patients with FAI and complete LT tears reported significant improvement in PROs. Among hips that did not require THA, functional scores were comparable to a matched control group. However, patients with complete LT tears were 3 times more likely to require an eventual THA than the matched control group. We conclude that patients with complete LT tears should be considered an at-risk population, and that indications and treatment may be refined to incorporate the clinical significance of complete LT tears. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, comparative trial, case-control.

Abstract
To evaluate the clinical outcome after arthroscopic matrix-associated injectable autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) in patients with large full-thickness acetabular cartilage defects. ACI was performed in young patients with full-thickness acetabular cartilage defects ≥2 cm2 in a two-step arthroscopic procedure. The patients were followed closely with clinical examinations and pre- and postoperative scores. The modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), iHOT33 questionnaire (iHOT33) and the Subjective Hip Value (SHV) were surveyed. Demographic patient data was evaluated for influencing factors for the pre- and postoperative results. Thirty-two consecutive cases (4 female, 28 male, mean age 33 years) were included. The average defect size was 4.9 (range: 2–6) cm2. They were followed at 6, 12, 24 and 36 months postoperatively. Patients had improved significantly from 64 to 91 points (P < 0.001) in the mHHS, from 44% to 86% (P < 0.001) in the iHOT33 and from 54% to 87% (P < 0.001) in the SHV. No surgery related complications were noted. Cell cultivation failed in two cases (7%) and the patients decided for a repeated harvesting of cartilage cylinders followed by a successful ACI. Patients age and size of the cartilage defect showed no significant correlation with the pre- or postoperative results. Injectable ACI is a reliable procedure treating full-thickness acetabular cartilage defects leading to promising results 3 years postoperatively with a significant increase in all scores despite large acetabular cartilage defects in the weight-bearing zone.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hip arthroscopy for the treatment of instability in the setting of borderline dysplasia is controversial. Capsular management in such cases is an important consideration, and plication has been described as a reliable technique, with good midterm outcomes reported when indications are appropriate. HYPOTHESIS Patients with borderline dysplasia who have a lower lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) and greater age will be at a higher risk of failure after arthroscopic capsular plication. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data were retrospectively reviewed for all patients between 15 and 40 years of age who underwent hip arthroscopy from November 2008 to January 2015. Inclusion criteria were an LCEA between 18° and 25°, Tönnis grade ≤1, primary case with capsular plication, and minimum 2-year follow-up. Patients were excluded if they had any history of ipsilateral hip procedure or conditions such as Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, rheumatologic disease, and Tönnis grade ≥2. Age, sex, and body mass index data were retrieved for each patient. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs)-including modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale, and a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain (0-10)-were obtained preoperatively and at a minimum of 2 years postoperatively, in addition to the postoperative International Hip Outcome Tool-12. The "success" group consisted of all patients who achieved the patient acceptable symptomatic state of mHHS ≥74 and had no ipsilateral hip surgery subsequent to their index arthroscopy. The "failure" group was composed of patients who were below the patient acceptable symptomatic state at latest follow-up or required secondary arthroscopy or conversion to total hip arthroplasty. Patient satisfaction and minimal clinically important difference were also calculated. Mean age for the failure group was applied as a cutoff age for subanalysis, and relative risk for failure was determined. RESULTS Ninety patients (97 hips; 79.5%) met criteria for the success group, and 25 patients (25 hips) met criteria for the failure group. No significant differences in preoperative baseline scores or VAS were found. However, there did appear to be a trend that the failure group had lower mean preoperative scores for all PRO measures and a higher VAS score. The differences in preoperative mHHS and NAHS closely approached significance ( P = .053). Postoperative PRO, VAS, and patient satisfaction scores of the success group were significantly higher than the failure group. The failure group was significantly older than the success group (28.5 ± 7.8 vs 23.5 ± 7.5 years, P = .005). Patients >35 years old were 2.25 times more likely to fail according to relative risk (95% CI, 1.10-4.60; P = .0266). LCEA did not differ between the groups, and no other risk factors for failure were identified. CONCLUSION Stringent criteria for patient selection and meticulous repair or augmentation of the static stabilizers of the hip yielded favorable clinical outcomes in this study cohort with borderline dysplasia. Within this carefully selected group, the analysis revealed that increased age was the main risk factor for failure in the management of borderline hip dysplasia via isolated primary arthroscopic hip surgery with capsular plication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Revision hip arthroscopy is increasingly common and often addresses acetabular labrum pathology. There is a lack of consensus on indications or outcomes of revision labral repair versus reconstruction. PURPOSE To report clinical outcomes of labral reconstruction during revision hip arthroscopy at minimum 2-year follow-up as compared with pair-matched labral repair during revision hip arthroscopy (control group) and to suggest a decision-making algorithm for labral treatment in revision hip arthroscopy. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Patients who underwent revision hip arthroscopy with labral reconstruction were matched 1:2 with patients who underwent revision arthroscopic labral repair. Patients were matched according to age, sex, and body mass index. Outcome scores, including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale, and a visual analog scale for pain, were collected preoperatively and at minimum 2-year follow-up. At latest follow-up, patient satisfaction on a 0-10 scale and the abbreviated International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12) were collected. Complications, subsequent arthroscopies, and conversion to total hip arthroplasty were collected as well. RESULTS A total of 15 revision labral reconstructions were pair matched to 30 revision labral repairs. The reconstructions had fewer isolated Seldes type I detachments ( P = .008) and lower postoperative lateral center-edge angle, but there were otherwise no significant differences in demographics, radiographics, intraoperative findings, or procedures. Both groups demonstrated significant improvements in all outcomes and visual analog scale at minimum 2-year follow-up. The revision repairs trended toward better preoperative scores: mHHS (mean ± SD: 59.3 ± 16.5 vs 54.2 ± 16.0), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (61.0 ± 16.7 vs 51.2 ± 17.6), Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale (39.6 ± 25.1 vs 30.5 ± 22.1), and visual analog scale (5.8 ± 1.8 vs 6.2 ± 2.2). At follow-up, the revision repair group had significantly higher mHHS (84.1 ± 14.8 vs 72.0 ± 18.3, P = .043) and iHOT-12 (72.2 ± 23.3 vs 49.0 ± 27.6, P = .023) scores than the reconstruction group. The magnitudes of pre- to postoperative improvement between the groups were comparable. The groups also had comparable rates of complications: 1 case of numbness in each group ( P > .999), subsequent arthroscopies (repair: n = 2, 6.5%; revision: n = 3, 20%; P = .150), and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (1 patient in each group, P > .999). CONCLUSION Labral reconstruction safely and effectively treats irreparable labra in revision hip arthroscopy. However, labral repair is another treatment option for reparable labra, yielding similar magnitude of improvement. A proposed algorithm may assist in surgical decision making to achieve optimal outcomes based on the condition and history of each patient's acetabular labrum.

Abstract
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the greater than 2-year patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and patient satisfaction of patients who were treated with hip arthroscopy for snapping iliopsoas tendons that were painful with concomitant acetabular dysplasia and who underwent iliopsoas lengthening for symptomatic iliopsoas tendon snapping with concomitant capsular plication and treatment of hip impingement. Secondary measures included observation of the change in the Tönnis grade at greater than 2 years' follow-up. METHODS Between July 2009 and December 2011, data on patients with a lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) of less than 25° (range, 19°-24°) who underwent hip arthroscopy with central-compartment iliopsoas fractional lengthening and capsular plication were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. Interportal capsular repair was performed using between 2 and 5 simple sutures. Patients also underwent procedures to treat hip impingement pathology. All patients had preoperative and minimum 2-year postoperative PRO measures: modified Harris Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living subscale, Hip Outcome Score-Sports-Specific subscale, and Non-arthritic Hip Score. The visual analog scale score and patient satisfaction with surgery (from 0 to 10) were also collected. Radiographs were analyzed preoperatively and at latest follow-up to assess progression of the Tönnis grade. RESULTS We analyzed 32 patients who met the inclusion criteria (30 female and 2 male patients; mean age, 25 years). The mean LCEA and anterior center-edge angle were 21.6° and 25.5°, respectively. Four patients required revision arthroscopy for labral retears. Among the 28 patients who did not undergo revision surgery, the modified Harris Hip Score, Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living subscale, Hip Outcome Score-Sports-Specific subscale, and Non-arthritic Hip Score improved from 68.7 to 83.5, from 64.9 to 86.6, from 71.6 to 86.7, and from 52.6 to 75.8, respectively (P < .001). The visual analog scale score improved from 5.6 preoperatively to 1.9 at latest follow-up (P < .001). The mean patient satisfaction rating was 8.0. There was no radiographic progression of the Tönnis grade at final follow-up. CONCLUSIONS This study showed that patients with an LCEA of less than 25° and associated painful iliopsoas snapping can be treated by addressing concomitant pathology and performing central-compartment fractional lengthening of the iliopsoas tendon with concomitant capsular plication and have high satisfaction, improvement in PROs, and improved pain scores, without significant progression of osteoarthritis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Studies assessing dysplasia's effect on hip arthroscopy are often limited to the short term and unable to account for demographic factors that may vary between dysplastic and nondysplastic populations. PURPOSE To determine the midterm failure rate and patient-reported outcomes of arthroscopic labral repair in the setting of dysplasia and make subsequent failure and outcome comparisons with a rigorously matched nondysplastic control group. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Primary arthroscopic labral repair cases at 2 centers from 2008 to 2011 were reviewed. Patients with lateral center edge angle (LCEA) <25° were matched to nondysplastic controls by age, sex, laterality, body mass index (BMI), Tönnis grade, and capsular repair per a 1:2 matching algorithm. Groups were compared with a visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS) to determine predictors of outcome and failure. RESULTS Forty-eight patients with dysplasia (mean LCEA, 21.6°; range, 13.0°-24.9°; n = 25 with capsular repair) were matched to 96 controls (mean LCEA, 32.1°; range, 25°-52°; n = 50 with capsular repair) and followed for a mean of 5.7 years (range, 5.0-7.7 years). Patients achieved mean VAS improvements of 3.3 points, mHHS of 19.5, and HOS-SSS of 29.0 points ( P < .01) with no significant differences between the dysplasia and control populations ( P > .05). Five-year failure-free survival was 83.3% for patients with dysplasia and 78.1% for controls ( P = .53). No survival or outcomes difference was observed between patients with dysplasia who did or did not have capsular repair ( P ≥ .45) or when comparing LCEA <20° and LCEA 20° to 25° ( P ≥ .60). BMI ≤30 was associated with increased revision surgery risk ( P < .01). Age >35 years ( P < .05) and Tönnis grade 0 radiographs ( P < .01) predicted failure to reach minimal clinically important differences. CONCLUSION With careful selection and modern techniques, patients with dysplasia can benefit significantly and durably from arthroscopic labral repair. The dysplastic cohort had outcomes and failure rates similar to those of rigorously matched controls at midterm follow-up. Subanalyses comparing LCEA <20° and LCEA 20° to 25° are presented for completeness; however, this study was not designed to detect differences in dysplastic subpopulations. BMI ≤30 was associated with increased revision risk. Age >35 years and Tönnis grade 0 radiographs predicted failure to achieve minimal clinically important differences.

Abstract
BACKGROUND As hip arthroscopy has expanded in popularity and volume, more information is needed about indications for the procedure and the predictive factors of clinical outcomes. PURPOSE To evaluate clinical outcomes of hip arthroscopy in a prospective study and to analyze the cohort to identify factors that are predictive of improvement. STUDY DESIGN Case-control study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data were collected prospectively on all patients undergoing hip arthroscopy between February 2008 and June 2012. We included all patients undergoing hip arthroscopy who agreed to participate and who completed 4 patient-reported outcome (PRO) instruments at a minimum 2-year follow-up: the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), and Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale. The NAHS was selected as our primary outcome instrument. All patients with any previous hip conditions were excluded. We analyzed 34 preoperative and intraoperative variables using bivariate and multivariate analyses compared with NAHS. RESULTS The cohort consisted of 1038 patients with a mean follow-up of 30.1 months (range, 24.0-61.2 months). Mean age was 36.4 years (range, 13.2-76.4 years). All postoperative PRO scores showed significant improvement ( P < .001) at 2 years compared with preoperative scores. Bivariate analysis identified 15 variables (7 categorical and 8 continuous) and multivariate analysis identified 10 variables that were predictive of 2-year postoperative NAHS. Preoperative NAHS, preoperative HOS-ADL, preoperative mHHS, age, duration of symptoms, body mass index (BMI), and revision hip arthroscopy were identified as predictive factors in both bivariate and multivariate analyses. The predictive value of preoperative NAHS was accentuated for patients with higher BMI. CONCLUSION This study reports favorable clinical outcomes in the largest cohort of hip arthroscopies with a minimum 2-year follow-up in the literature to date. Factors identified as predictive in both bivariate and multivariate analyses included preoperative NAHS, HOS-ADL, and mHHS; age; duration of symptoms; BMI; and revision hip arthroscopy. These predictive factors may be useful to the clinician in determining prognosis and operative indications for hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
The purpose of this article is to give a general overview of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and how it could be treated arthroscopically, with some details about indications, the procedure itself and some of the complications associated with the surgery. FAI is a dynamic condition of the hip that can be a source of pain and disability and could potentially lead to arthritis. When symptomatic, and if conservative treatment fails, FAI can be addressed surgically. The goal of surgical treatment for FAI is to recreate the spherical contour of the femoral head, improve femoral offset, normalize coverage of the acetabulum, repair/reconstruct chondral damage and repair/reconstruct the labrum to restore normal mechanics and joint sealing. Advances in equipment and technique have contributed to an increase in the number of hip arthroscopy procedures performed worldwide and have made it one of the more common treatment options for symptomatic FAI. Hip arthroscopy is a procedure with an extremely steep and long learning curve.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic labral debridement in the hip can be an effective treatment for labral tears but has demonstrated inferior outcomes compared with labral repair. Thus, the role for labral debridement has become unclear. Hypothesis/Purpose: The purpose was to evaluate the outcomes of a selective debridement with labral preservation (SDLP) group with a minimum 5-year follow-up. It was hypothesized that, with narrow indications, SDLP would produce statistically improved patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores, comparable with those of a matched-pair labral repair control group. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data were collected on all patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopic surgery between February 2008 and September 2011. Exclusion criteria were acetabular or femoral head Outerbridge grade 4 chondral damage, preoperative Tnnis grade ≥2, workers' compensation claims, previous hip conditions, severe dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle <18°), or previous ipsilateral hip surgery. Patients who underwent arthroscopic labral debridement and had preoperative and minimum 5-year PRO scores, including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), and Hip Outcome Score-Sports-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS) as well as the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, were included. In a nested matched-pair comparison, the SDLP group was matched 1:1 to an arthroscopic labral repair control group based on age ±5 years, body mass index ±5 kg/m2, sex, and Seldes tear type. RESULTS One hundred twenty-five hips were eligible for inclusion, of which 101 (80.8%) hips had a minimum 5-year follow-up. All PRO scores were significantly improved ( P < .001) at latest follow-up (mHHS, 63.4 to 82.4; NAHS, 57.4 to 83.6; HOS-SSS, 44.2 to 74.5). The mean VAS score decreased from 5.8 to 2.3 ( P < .001). The mean patient satisfaction score was 8.1. Four (4.0%) patients underwent second-look arthroscopic surgery (mean, 18.5 months), and 14 (13.9%) patients converted to total hip arthroplasty (mean, 46.9 months). In the matched-pair comparison, 69 in the SDLP group were matched 1:1 with those undergoing labral repair. Outcomes at latest follow-up of the SDLP group were comparable with those of the control group, respectively: mHHS, 83.0 vs 86.1 ( P = .084); NAHS, 85.0 vs 85.4 ( P = .415); HOS-SSS, 74.8 vs 76.8 ( P = .219); VAS, 2.3 vs 2.0 ( P = .277); international Hip Outcome Tool-12 (iHOT-12), 73.8 vs 76.4 ( P = .136); Short Form Health Survey-12 (SF-12) mental, 57.4 vs 55.1 ( P = .031); SF-12 physical, 48.7 vs 48.9 ( P = .357); Veterans RAND Health Survey-12 (VR-12) mental, 61.6 vs 59.8 ( P = .160); VR-12 physical, 50.1 vs 50.2 ( P = .340); and patient satisfaction, 8.0 vs 8.3 ( P = .211). CONCLUSION In select cases of stable labral tears, SDLP may allow the preservation of a functional labrum. At a minimum 5-year follow-up, SDLP using narrow indications produced favorable outcomes comparable with a matched-pair labral repair group.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The arthroscopic management of hip dysplasia has been controversial and has historically demonstrated mixed results. Studies on patients with borderline dysplasia, emphasizing the importance of the labrum and capsule as secondary stabilizers, have shown improvement in patient-reported outcomes (PROs). Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose was to assess whether the results of hip arthroscopic surgery with labral preservation and concurrent capsular plication in patients with borderline hip dysplasia have lasting, positive outcomes at a minimum 5-year follow-up. It was hypothesized that with careful patient selection, outcomes would be favorable. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Data were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed for patients aged <40 years who underwent hip arthroscopic surgery for intra-articular abnormalities. Inclusion criteria included lateral center-edge angle (LCEA) between 18° and 25°, concurrent capsular plication and labral preservation, and minimum 5-year follow-up. Exclusion criteria were severe dysplasia (LCEA ≤18°), Tönnis grade ≥2, pre-existing childhood hip conditions, or prior hip surgery. PRO scores including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), and Hip Outcome Score Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS) and the visual analog scale (VAS) score for pain were collected preoperatively, at 3 months, and annually thereafter. Complications and revisions were recorded. RESULTS Twenty-five hips (24 patients) met the inclusion criteria. Twenty-one hips (19 patients, 84%) were available for follow-up. The mean age at surgery was 22.9 years. The mean preoperative LCEA and Tönnis angle were 21.7° (range, 18° to 24°) and 6.9° (range, -1° to 16°), respectively. The mean follow-up was 68.8 months. The mean mHHS increased from 70.3 to 85.9 ( P < .0001), the mean NAHS from 68.3 to 87.3 ( P < .0001), and the mean HOS-SSS from 52.1 to 70.8 ( P = .0002). The mean VAS score improved from 5.6 to 1.8 ( P < .0001). Four hips (19%) required secondary arthroscopic procedures, all of which resulted in improved PRO scores at latest follow-up. No patient required conversion to total hip arthroplasty. CONCLUSION While periacetabular osteotomy remains the standard for treating true acetabular dysplasia, hip arthroscopy may provide a safe and durable means of managing intra-articular abnormalities in the setting of borderline acetabular dysplasia at midterm follow-up. These procedures should be performed by surgeons with expertise in advanced arthroscopic techniques, using strict patient selection criteria, with emphasis on labral preservation and capsular plication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The technique of hip arthroscopic surgery is advancing and becoming more commonly performed. However, most current reported results are limited to short-term follow-up, and therefore, the durability of the procedure is largely unknown. PURPOSE To perform a multicenter analysis of mid-term clinical outcomes of arthroscopic hip labral repair and determine the risk factors for patient outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Prospectively collected data of primary hip arthroscopic labral repair performed at 4 high-volume centers between 2008 and 2011 were reviewed retrospectively. Patients were assessed preoperatively and postoperatively with the visual analog scale (VAS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Hip Outcome Score-Sports-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS) at a minimum of 5 years' follow-up. Factors including age, body mass index (BMI), Tönnis grade, and cartilage grade were analyzed in relation to outcome scores, and revision rates were determined. Failure was defined as subsequent ipsilateral hip surgery, including revision arthroscopic surgery and open hip surgery. RESULTS A total of 303 patients (101 male, 202 female) with a mean age of 32.0 years (range, 10.7-58.9 years) were followed for a mean of 5.7 years (range, 5.0-7.9 years). Patients achieved mean improvements in VAS of 3.5 points, mHHS of 20.1 points, and HOS-SSS of 29.3 points. Thirty-seven patients (12.2%) underwent revision arthroscopic surgery, and 12 (4.0%) underwent periacetabular osteotomy, resurfacing, or total hip arthroplasty during the study period. Patients with a BMI >30 kg/m2 had a mean mHHS score 9.5 points lower and a mean HOS-SSS score 15.9 points lower than those with a BMI ≤30 kg/m2 ( P < .01). Patients aged >35 years at surgery had a mean mHHS score 4.5 points lower and a HOS-SSS score 6.7 points lower than those aged ≤35 years ( P = .03). Patients with Tönnis grade 2 radiographs demonstrated a 12.5-point worse mHHS score ( P = .02) and a 23.0-point worse HOS-SSS score ( P < .01) when compared with patients with Tönnis grade 0. CONCLUSION Patients demonstrated significant improvements in VAS, mHHS, and HOS-SSS scores after arthroscopic labral repair. However, those with Tönnis grade 2 changes preoperatively, BMI >30 kg/m2, and age >35 years at the time of surgery demonstrated significantly decreased mHHS and HOS-SSS scores at final follow-up.

Hip chondrolabral mechanics during activities of daily living: Role of the labrum and interstitial fluid pressurization. J Biomech 2018; 69:113-120.

Abstract
Osteoarthritis of the hip can result from mechanical factors, which can be studied using finite element (FE) analysis. FE studies of the hip often assume there is no significant loss of fluid pressurization in the articular cartilage during simulated activities and approximate the material as incompressible and elastic. This study examined the conditions under which interstitial fluid load support remains sustained during physiological motions, as well as the role of the labrum in maintaining fluid load support and the effect of its presence on the solid phase of the surrounding cartilage. We found that dynamic motions of gait and squatting maintained consistent fluid load support between cycles, while static single-leg stance experienced slight fluid depressurization with significant reduction of solid phase stress and strain. Presence of the labrum did not significantly influence fluid load support within the articular cartilage, but prevented deformation at the cartilage edge, leading to lower stress and strain conditions in the cartilage. A morphologically accurate representation of collagen fibril orientation through the thickness of the articular cartilage was not necessary to predict fluid load support. However, comparison with simplified fibril reinforcement underscored the physiological importance. The results of this study demonstrate that an elastic incompressible material approximation is reasonable for modeling a limited number of cyclic motions of gait and squatting without significant loss of accuracy, but is not appropriate for static motions or numerous repeated motions. Additionally, effects seen from removal of the labrum motivate evaluation of labral reattachment strategies in the context of labral repair.

Abstract
Arthroscopic labral 'takedown' and refixation is utilized to permit adequate visualization and resection of the acetabular rim deformity, in patients with pincer or mixed femoroacetabular impingement. Deficiencies exist in present techniques, which include disruption of vital anatomical support and vascular structures to the labrum and chondrolabral junction, drill or anchor articular penetration risk, bunching, elevation and instability of the labrum. A new operative technique is described which preserves the important chondrolabral interface, accurately restoring the 'flap seal' of the acetabular labrum while minimizing vascular disruption and reducing the risk of drill and anchor penetration. A prospective series of 123 consecutive cases of pincer or mixed femoroacetabular impingement, treated with arthroscopic labral cuff refixation and preservation of the chondrolabral interface, is reported; operative technique and 2-year outcomes are presented.

Abstract
Arthroscopic acetabuloplasty involves trimming of bone from the acetabular rim. Although early techniques often involved detachment of the labrum prior to bone resection, recent studies have reported on acetabuloplasty without labral detachment. This method has the benefit of preserving the labro-osseous junction, but visualization of the acetabular rim may be more difficult. Compromised visualization can lead to incomplete resection and residual impingement. We describe an arthroscopic perspective called the "bird's eye" and "upper deck" views that facilitates optimal visualization of the acetabuloplasty without labral detachment.

Abstract
The acetabular labrum and the transverse acetabular ligament form a continuous ring of tissue on the periphery of the acetabulum that provides a seal for the hip joint and increases the surface area to spread load distribution during weight-bearing. When a labral tear is suspected, the treatment algorithm always begins with conservative management, including physical therapy and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs. When conservative management fails, patients become candidates for arthroscopic labral repair. In the last 2 decades, the rate of hip arthroscopy has increased nearly 4-fold. However, as hip arthroscopy is performed more frequently, there is a need for a proper technique to minimize morbidity, because hip arthroscopy has been known to have a steep learning curve. We present a method for arthroscopic hip labral repair using suture anchors without a capsular repair. This Technical Note highlights our technique for labral repair, along with pearls and pitfalls of hip arthroscopy.

Abstract
Background: Femoral retroversion has been noted as a possible risk factor for poor clinical results after hip arthroscopic surgery. Purpose: To compare the outcomes of the arthroscopic treatment of hip abnormalities in patients with femoral retroversion to patients with femoral anteversion between 10° and 20°. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. Methods: Between November 2011 and September 2013, 790 hip arthroscopic procedures were performed at a single institution. Of these, 59 hips (7.5%) were located in patients with femoral version ≤0°, calculated using preoperative magnetic resonance imaging. These patients were pair matched, based on body mass index ±5 kg/m2, age ±5 years, and Tönnis grade, with 59 patients with femoral anteversion between 10° and 20°. Exclusion criteria included Perthes disease, inflammatory arthritis, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, previous hip surgery, abductor repair, lateral center-edge angle <20°, Tönnis grade >1, and acetabular profunda or protrusio. Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) were recorded preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively, and annually thereafter. The PROs utilized were the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), and Hip Outcome Score–Sports-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS). The visual analog scale (VAS) was collected to assess the patients’ pain; patient satisfaction scores (0-10) were also collected. Radiographs were collected at the above time intervals as well. Results: Two patients from the control group and 1 patient from the retroverted group required total hip arthroplasty at a mean 19.5 and 26.3 months, respectively. Both groups demonstrated significant improvement from their preoperative state in all PRO and VAS scores (P < .001). No differences in preoperative, postoperative, or change in PRO and VAS scores between the groups were noted. Conclusion: Patients with femoral retroversion reported similar outcomes compared to patients with normal femoral version when undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery. Both groups had similar improvements from the preoperative state.

Abstract
The prevalence of hip arthroscopy has increased exponentially with the advent of arthroscopic labral repair techniques for femoroacetabular impingement. The goal of arthroscopic labral repair is to re-create the anatomic suction seal of the labrum against the femoral head. This important anatomic relationship has been demonstrated in several biomechanical studies. Performing the acetabular recession and evaluating the congruity of labral repairs during surgery is difficult with the application of traction distracting the femoral head from the chondrolabral junction. Additionally, prolonged traction risks nerve injury during hip arthroscopy. The purpose of this technique article is to describe a method of using traction only for central compartment work, and releasing the traction to allow the femoral head to reduce the labrum to its anatomic position for acetabular recession, anchor placement, and suture fixation. In this manner, the presented technique prevents an "out-of-round" or everted repair. This technique re-creates the native anatomy and biomechanics of the hip after acetabular recession and labral repair while decreasing traction time.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Arthroscopic labral base repair (LBR) in the hip is a previously described technique designed to restore the native functional anatomy of the labrum by reproducing its seal against the femoral head. LBR has been shown to have good short-term outcomes. Hypothesis/Purpose: The purpose was to evaluate clinical outcomes of an LBR cohort with a minimum 5-year follow-up. It was hypothesized that patients who underwent LBR would continue to have significant improvement from their preoperative scores and maintain scores similar to their 2-year outcomes. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of evidence, 4. METHODS Data for patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopic surgery with LBR from February 2008 to May 2011 with a minimum 5-year follow-up were prospectively collected and retrospectively reviewed. Patients with preoperative Tonnis osteoarthritis grade ≥2, previous hip conditions (slipped capital femoral epiphysis, avascular necrosis, Legg-Calv-Perthes disease), severe dysplasia (lateral center-edge angle <18°), or previous ipsilateral hip surgery were excluded. Statistical equivalence tests evaluated patient-reported outcomes (PROs) including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS), Hip Outcome Score-Sport-Specific Subscale (HOS-SSS), visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, and patient satisfaction (0-10 scale; 10 = very satisfied). RESULTS Of the 70 patients (74 hips) who met inclusion and exclusion criteria, 60 (85.7%) patients (64 hips) were available at a minimum 5-year follow-up. All PRO scores significantly improved from preoperative values with a mean follow-up of 67.8 ± 7.4 months (range, 60.0-89.7 months). The mean mHHS increased from 64.4 ±13.8 to 85.3 ± 17.7 ( P < .001), the mean NAHS from 63.7 ± 17.0 to 87.0 ± 14.7 ( P < .001), and the mean HOS-SSS from 47.1 ± 23.2 to 76.5 ± 25.9 ( P < .001). The mean VAS score decreased from 5.9 ± 2.4 to 2.0 ± 2.1 ( P < .001). The mean patient satisfaction score was 8.1 ± 2.0. The improvement in PRO scores was sustained from 2- to 5-year follow-up. At 2 and 5 years, survivorship rates were 96.9% and 90.6%, respectively, and the respective secondary arthroscopic surgery rates were 10.9% (7/64) and 17.2% (11/64). CONCLUSION At a minimum 5-year follow-up, arthroscopic LBR continued to be a successful procedure and valid technique based on 3 PROs, the VAS, patient satisfaction, and survivorship. Significantly improved outcome scores were maintained compared with preoperative values and showed no signs of deterioration from the 2-year scores. The long-term survivorship of hip arthroscopic surgery has yet to be determined; however, these midterm results demonstrate the rates of additional procedures (both secondary arthroscopic surgery and conversion to total hip arthroplasty), that may be necessary after 2 years.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Advancements in instrumentation and techniques have extended the scope of hip arthroscopic surgery to treat complex osseous deformities that were previously best addressed with an open approach. Global pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement is an example of an abnormality requiring osseous correction with a technically challenging access point. PURPOSE To report on the patterns of clinical presentation and intra-articular derangements, radiological associations, and minimum 2-year outcomes after hip arthroscopic surgery in patients with a lateral center edge angle (LCEA) >40° and profunda acetabulae in comparison with matched controls with normal acetabular coverage. STUDY DESIGN Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS Data were collected on all patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery during the study period from April 2008 to April 2013. All patients who had undergone hip arthroscopic surgery for symptomatic labral tears not responsive to a minimum of 3 months of physical therapy with both an LCEA >40° and profunda acetabulae, as defined by the ilioischial line lateral to the medial border of the teardrop, and without a history of hip surgery or hip conditions were included. This group was matched in a 1-to-1 ratio with a control group that had also undergone the arthroscopic management of symptomatic labral tears refractory to a minimum of 3 months of physical therapy with an LCEA between 25° and 40° according to age within 3 years, sex, body mass index category, Tönnis grade, labral treatment, and capsular treatment. Range of motion, impingement signs, and radiographic indices of coverage and version were recorded for each group. Four patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores, the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, patient satisfaction, revision hip arthroscopic surgery, and conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were also recorded. RESULTS Thirty-nine patients met the inclusion criteria for the study (overcoverage) group, of which 36 (92.3%) patients had a minimum 2-year follow-up; 215 patients satisfied the inclusion criteria for the control (normal coverage) group, of which 183 (85.1%) had a minimum 2-year follow-up. Thirty-six patients were matched in each group using the above criteria. There was no difference with respect to range of motion and impingement signs between the groups. The study group had significantly higher radiological markers of overcoverage but not retroversion compared with the control group. The study group had a significantly higher incidence of Seldes type 2 tears compared with the control group: 50.0% versus 19.4%, respectively ( P = .013). Both groups demonstrated significant improvements in the mean scores of all PROs, but the study group had a lower magnitude of improvement for all the PROs compared with the control group, with the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) achieving statistical significance: 13.5 versus 21.7 points, respectively ( P = .032). The study group had a significantly lower mean patient satisfaction score compared with the control group: 6.61 versus 7.91, respectively ( P = .019). The study group also had a significantly higher incidence of conversion to THA compared with the control group: 4 versus 0, respectively ( P = .040). CONCLUSION Hip arthroscopic surgery for the management of symptomatic labral tears in patients with combined overcoverage and coxa profunda is associated with improvements in patient outcomes and pain at a minimum 2-year follow-up. However, the degree of improvement is of lower magnitude compared with a matched cohort with normal coverage undergoing the arthroscopic management of symptomatic labral tears. While hips with lateral overcoverage combined with coxa profunda may have a smaller potential for improvement compared with hips with normal coverage, this type of osseous morphology is still repairable with arthroscopic treatment.

Dierckman BD, Ni J, Hohn EA, Domb BG. Does duration of symptoms affect clinical outcome after hip arthroscopy for labral tears? Analysis of prospectively collected outcomes with minimum 2-year follow-up. J Hip Preserv Surg 2017; 4:308-317. [PMID: 29250339 PMCID: PMC5721369 DOI: 10.1093/jhps/hnx023] [Citation(s) in RCA: 20] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/10/2017] [Revised: 03/28/2017] [Accepted: 04/26/2017] [Indexed: 11/13/2022] Open
Abstract
Limited research exists on the possible association between duration of symptoms and clinical outcomes following hip arthroscopy for labral tears. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether duration of symptoms affected clinical and patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores following hip arthroscopy for labral tears. From 2008 to 2011, data were collected prospectively on all patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for labral tears. Workers' compensation cases, dysplasia cases and patients with previous ipsilateral hip surgeries were excluded. A total of 738 patients were identified with a minimum of 2-year follow-up, and clinical and PRO data were available for 680 patients. Uni- and multivariate analyses were performed to determine the relationship between duration of symptoms along with other variables and PROs. Overall, patients experienced significant improvements in all clinical and PRO scores. Results of univariate analysis revealed that all PROs were negatively associated with increasing Log10 months of symptoms as were pain and satisfaction scores. During multivariate analyses, increasing Log10 months of symptoms, age, body mass index and trauma were all negatively associated with PROs (P < 0.05). Our study demonstrates that clinical and PRO scores were negatively associated with increasing duration of symptoms prior to hip arthroscopy for treatment of labral tears. Although this implies that delay in treatment may adversely affect outcome, conservative treatment remains the gold standard first line of treatment. Surgeons should incorporate this information into their treatment algorithm to maximize patient outcomes following treatment for labral tears. Level of evidence: Level IV, prospective case series.

Decision Making for Labral Treatment in the Hip: Repair Versus Débridement Versus Reconstruction. J Am Acad Orthop Surg 2017; 25:e53-e62.

Abstract
The role and function of the acetabular labrum have been studied extensively in the past decade. Recent studies have proposed that, in addition to causing pain and mechanical symptoms, labral tears may accelerate arthritis. Labral preservation is believed to be important because of the role the labrum plays in maintaining a healthy joint. Treatment of the acetabular labrum is becoming one of the fastest growing fields in orthopaedics; therefore, the treatment decision-making process must be refined. Currently, three commonly practiced labral treatments are available: repair, débridement, and reconstruction. Arguments for and against each treatment option exist in the literature. Reviewing the currently proposed indicators for labral tear treatments in conjunction with the treatment procedures yields a thorough decision-making guide for choosing the appropriate labral procedure.
