Editorial Commentary: Extreme Hip Labral Size (Both Small and Large) Shows Inferior Outcomes After Arthroscopic Labral Repair With Femoroacetabular Impingement Treatment.
Arthroscopy 2024 January 13
Arthroscopic management of hip femoroacetabular impingement shows reliable improvement in pain and patient-reported outcomes, high survivorship, and low conversion to total hip arthroplasty, particularly in the absence of dysplasia. Concomitant labral repair-or augmentation versus reconstruction when indicated- consistently shows better results than labral debridement. The effect of labral size on outcomes has been studies in several series. Some studies show that smaller labra show inferior outcomes after repair, others show labral size makes no difference in outcomes, and one showed that patients large labra actually had worse outcomes. Perhaps labral size at either extreme does worse. Labral size is likely to remain one of many factors worth evaluating when prognosticating repair outcomes or indicating when advanced reconstructive options are warranted.
