Arthroscopic Treatment of Femoroacetabular Impingement Using Labral Reconstruction with Capsular Autograft.

ABSTRACT: The acetabular labrum is essential for stability during physiologic motion of the hip. Labral repairs frequently are attempted in cases of primary tears, although labral reconstruction is an important alternative in the revision setting or in the primary setting when the tissue is unsalvageable. Labral reconstruction has been shown to restore the hip's suction-seal and fluid pressurization to that of the premorbid state, and cohort studies have demonstrated significantly improved patient-reported outcomes at midterm follow-up. Notably, the cost is of consideration during any reconstruction, and techniques have been described using both allograft and autograft sources. Autograft sources include the iliotibial band, ligamentum teres, gracilis tendon, and hip capsule. A previously described t
