Arthroscopic Treatment of Hip Dislocation After Previous Hip Arthroscopy: Capsular Reconstruction With Labral Augmentation

Abstract

The hip capsule and acetabular labrum are critical structures that function to protect and stabilize the hip joint. As the use of hip arthroscopy increases, there is increasing interest in the integrity of the hip capsule and labrum in optimizing postoperative function and outcomes. In this report, we describe the surgical technique for capsular reconstruction with dermal allograft and labral augmentation with tibialis anterior allograft for the treatment of gross instability after hip arthroscopy. This technique may be applied in situations with large capsular defects and deficient labral tissue.
