Changes in Hip Capsule Morphology after Arthroscopic Treatment for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome with Periportal Capsulotomy are Correlated With Improvements in Patient-Reported Outcomes.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To assess the correlation between changes in hip capsule morphology with improvements in patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores after arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) using the periportal capsulotomy technique.

Methods

Twenty-eight patients with cam morphology FAIS (without arthritis, dysplasia, or hypermobility) were prospectively enrolled before arthroscopic labral repair and femoroplasty through periportal capsulotomy (anterolateral/midanterior portals) without closure. Patients completed the Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcomes Score (HOOS) and had nonarthrographic 3T magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of the affected hip before and 1 year after surgery. Anterior capsule thickness, posterior capsule thickness, anterio
