Editorial Commentary: Suture Anchor Fixation Eliminates the Wave Sign and Improves Outcomes for Hip Labrochondral...

During hip arthroscopy, when a wave sign is encountered, it is a sign of labrochondral dysfunction, just like a traditional labral tear. Suture anchor fixation to the labrum can eliminate the wave sign and improve patient outcomes. Readers are urged not to equate hip labral pathology with shoulder labral tears, which have different pathomechanics, and subsequently may have different morphological characteristics.
