Editorial Commentary: Hip Arthroscopy Capsular Management-Cut Your Cloth to Measure!

Microinstability of the hip is a relatively recent concept but one that is gaining increased acceptance. As our understanding of the factors that contribute to microinstability has increased, so too has our ability to identify "at-risk" patients, in whom a capsular repair should be considered after hip arthroscopy to achieve optimal results and avoid iatrogenic instability (dislocation or microinstability). However, each of our patients is different, and as such, we must be able to tailor our capsulotomies and repairs accordingly based on the bony morphology, capsular volume, and properties of the tissue.
