Graft Options for Hip Labral Reconstruction

Abstract

Arthroscopic hip labral reconstruction is a complex procedure which is growing in use as indications, techniques, and surgical expertise advance. Graft selection is an important component of labral reconstruction based on relative advantages and disadvantages of available types of autografts and allografts. The ideal graft should mimic the native acetabular labrum form and function while also being affordable, readily available, and associated with low morbidity. High rates of patient satisfaction and positive patient-reported outcomes have been reported after labral reconstruction using several graft types.
