Background:
Acetabular labral reconstruction is a proven solution for labral deficiency; nonetheless, it is technically challenging to perform. We present a reproducible, safe, and efficient method for partial circumferential labral reconstruction.
Indications:
Labral reconstruction is indicated in patients with symptomatic labral tearing-typically in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and labral tissue that is poor quality, ossified, or hypoplastic.
Technique Description:
This technique outlines methodical steps for labral reconstruction, with special attention to portal placement, acetabular rim preparation, suture management, graft passage, and graft fixation.
Results:
Most patients undergoing acetabular labral reconstruction in the setting of FAI and deficient labral tissue achieve excellent improvements in patient-reported outcome measures and high rates of satisfaction, which are similar to those of labral repair.
Discussion/Conclusion:
Labral reconstruction is a good option for patients with symptomatic labral tearing and deficiency. A reproducible, safe, and efficient technique is critical for this technically challenging procedure.
