A Modified "Shuttle" Method Technique for Arthroscopic Hip Capsular Reconstruction in Capsular Deficiency.

ABSTRACT: The hip capsule has been recognized as a vital structure in the stability and proper function of the hip. Preserving its integrity during arthroscopic surgery is one of the utmost important principles in hip preservation surgery. When capsular deficiency is present, capsular reconstruction may be indicated to restore stability and proper hip mechanics. In this technical note, we introduce a simple and reproducible shuttle method technique for hip capsular reconstruction using a dermal allograft.
