2021 Annual Meeting Hip Access Pass-Circumferential and Segmental Labral Reconstruction; Management in the Primary Setting

Circumferential and Segmental Labral Reconstruction; Management in the Primary Setting

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses labor reconstructions in both primary and revision settings. They introduce a technique for labor reconstruction using the knotless pull-through technique, which allows for accurate graft sizing and eliminates the need to measure the defect length. The speaker demonstrates the technique and showcases successful graft fixation. The purpose of the study discussed is to compare segmental and circumferential labral reconstruction for irreparable labral tears. The study shows that both techniques resulted in significant improvement in patient-reported outcomes and high patient satisfaction. The speaker suggests that both techniques have a role in the field, depending on tissue viability. The study is limited by its retrospective nature and single-center, single-surgeon data. The speaker concludes by acknowledging the need for further follow-up and discusses previous publications related to labor reconstructions. Overall, both techniques yielded favorable outcomes and provide alternatives when the labrum is not repairable.
