2021 Annual Meeting Hip Access Pass-Midterm Outcomes Following Hip Labral Augmentation

Midterm Outcomes Following Hip Labral Augmentation

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses labral augmentation as a procedure for optimizing labral volume and maintaining the chondrolabral junction in the hip suction seal mechanism. They present a comparative study between augmentation and labral reconstruction in the revision setting, finding higher patient-reported outcome measures in the augmentation group. The speaker then presents their own study, which included 88 patients who underwent labral augmentation with an average age of 32 and a mean follow-up of five years. The study shows significant improvement in patient-reported outcome measures post-surgery, with a survivorship rate of 93% at five years. However, there was a high rate of revision surgery (14%), mostly due to adhesions. The study suggests that autografts may be preferred for augmentation due to lower rates of revision.
