Capsule Closure of Periportal Capsulotomy for Hip Arthroscopy

Knotless Implant for Arthroscopic Hip Capsule Closure

“…1 , 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 Several prior biomechanical and technical studies have noted the significant stabilizing function of the hip capsule and the biomechanical importance of hip capsular closure. 6 , 7 , 8 These studies highlight a paradigm shift in the management of the hip capsule in arthroscopic hip surgery. In this article, we present use of a knotless implant for arthroscopic hip capsular closure or plication.…”

Arthroscopic Capsular Suture-Lifting Technique for Treating Femoroacetabular Impingement Patients With a High Risk of Postoperative Anterior Instability

“…As is well known, the anterior joint capsule plays an essential role in anterior stability of the hip joint, especially in patients with a high risk of postoperative anterior instability. 9 , 13 , 14 , 15 , 16 , 17 Unlike suture repair or reconstruction of the anterior joint capsule for an anterior defect of the joint capsule, a specific capsular suturing technique is needed to close the incision of the anterior joint capsule and improve anterior stability in high-risk patients. In this Technical Note, we introduce the arthroscopic capsular suture-lifting technique for treating FAI patients with a high risk of postoperative hip instability.…”
