RESUMEN
While functional reconstruction of massive irreparable rotator cuff tears remains a challenge, current techniques aimed at recentering and preventing superior migration of the humeral head allow for clinical and biomechanical improvements in shoulder pain and function. Recentering of the glenohumeral joint reduces the moment arm and helps the deltoid to recruit more fibers, which compensates for insufficient rotator cuff function and reduces joint pressure. In the past, the concept of a superior capsular reconstruction with a patch secured by suture anchors has been used. However, several innovative arthroscopic treatment options have also been developed. The purpose of this article is to present an overview of new strategies and surgical techniques and if existing present initial clinical results. Techniques that will be covered include rerouting the long head of the biceps tendon, utilization of the biceps tendon as an autograft to reconstruct the superior capsule, utilization of a semitendinosus tendon allograft to reconstruct the superior capsule, superior capsular reconstruction with dermal allografts, and subacromial spacers.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To evaluate the biomechanical properties of the labral suction seal in the native labrum and after rim preparation, labral augmentation, and labral reconstruction. METHODS: Eight hemi-pelvises were dissected to the level of labrum and mounted for biomechanical testing. Each specimen was tested in axial distraction starting with the native labrum and then sequentially following rim preparation from 12 to 3 o'clock, labral augmentation, and segmental labral reconstruction using the iliotibial band allograft. In each condition, the specimens were compressed to 250 N and then distracted at 10 mm/s with force and displacement continuously recorded. Each test was repeated 3 times, and the mean peak force, displacement at peak force, and work were calculated. Data were reported as a percentage of the intact values to account for sex and size differences. Statistical testing was performed via a repeated-measures analysis of variance with a post hoc Tukey analysis. RESULTS: Peak loads occurred within 2.21 to 3.11 mm of displacement. The mean peak force, displacement at peak force, and work relative to the intact condition were the following: rim preparation (91.1% ± 8.5%, 94.4% ± 14.3%, 93.4% ± 23.5%, respectively), augmentation (66.1% ± 27.6%, 78.2% ± 16.3%, 55.7% ± 30.7%, respectively), and reconstruction (55.6% ± 25.7%, 64.7% ± 31.4%, 38.7% ± 27.2%, respectively). There was no significant difference in peak force following the rim preparation (P = .807), but peak force was significantly decreased after augmentation and reconstruction (P = .010 and P < .001, respectively). There was no significant difference in displacement at peak force following rim preparation or augmentation (P = .936 and P = .125, respectively), but displacement at peak force was significantly decreased after reconstruction (P = .005). The work from the suction seal was significantly less in both augmentation and reconstruction states compared to the intact labrum (P = .004 and P < .001, respectively) and rim preparation (P = .017 and P < .001, respectively). CONCLUSIONS: The results show that the suction seal is not significantly changed following rim preparation. Relative to the rim preparation, labral augmentation may re-create the labral suction seal better than labral reconstruction. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study provides a biomechanical basis for surgical decision making and clinical management of patients with labral tears of the hip.

PURPOSE: To evaluate the 1-year outcomes of a small patient series following open gluteus medius/minimus repair with human dermal allograft incorporated into the repair construct using a double-row repair. METHODS: Data from consecutive patients undergoing a superior gluteal reconstruction for massive, irreparable abductor tendon tears with severe tendon loss and atrophy by a single fellowship trained surgeon from January 2018 to May 2019 were collected and analyzed. Baseline demographic data and magnetic resonance imaging were collected preoperatively. Clinical outcomes including Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), HOS-Sports Subscale (HOS-SS), modified Harris hip score (mHHS), international Hip Outcome Score-12 (iHOT-12), visual analog scale (VAS) pain, and VAS satisfaction were recorded at 1-year postoperatively. RESULTS: A total of 8 patients underwent open superior gluteal reconstruction for severe hip abductor deficiency. The mean age and body mass index were 62.6 ± 7.3 years and 29.6 ± 5.3 kg/m2, respectively. The majority of patients were female (N = 7, 87.5%). Three (37.5%) patients had undergone previous endoscopic gluteus medius repair and presented for revision surgery. All patients had full-thickness tears with gluteus medius and gluteus minimus involvement. Patients were evaluated at an average of 11.5 ± 1.7 months from the initial surgical intervention and reported a mean HOS-ADL of 82.9 ± 24.3, HOS-SS of 73.2 ± 37.3, mHHS of 83.6 ± 17.1, iHOT-12 of 63.9 ± 27.4, VAS Pain of 30.0 ± 23.1, and VAS Satisfaction of 87.1 ± 17.0. There was no evidence of retears in this patient cohort as defined by physical examination findings and/or corroborating magnetic resonance imaging. CONCLUSIONS: Superior gluteal reconstruction for massive, irreparable abductor tendon tears with severe tendon loss and atrophy is a technique that demonstrates promising 1-year postoperative outcomes in both primary and revision patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, therapeutic case series.
RESUMEN
There has been an increased emphasis on capsular management during hip arthroscopy in the literature in recent years. The capsule plays a significant role in the hip joint stability and studies have demonstrated that capsular closure can restore the biomechanics of the hip back to the native state. Capsular management also affects functional outcomes with capsular repair resulting in better clinical outcomes in some studies. Management of the capsule has evolved in recent years with more surgeons performing routine capsular closure. Management techniques and degree of capsular closure, however, can be quite variable between surgeons. This review will discuss hip capsular anatomy, the importance of the capsule in hip biomechanics, management of the capsule during arthroscopy, and functional outcomes as it relates to the various capsular closure techniques versus leaving the capsulotomy unrepaired.

PURPOSE: To determine whether 3-dimensional (3D)-reconstructed proximal femoral bone models can be used to quantify femoral osteochondroplasty and to determine whether the 3D-based metrics are related to clinical alpha angle measures. METHODS: Six cadaveric specimens with cam-type morphology underwent open femoral osteochondroplasty. Alpha angles were measured on the oblique axial computed tomography slice before and after femoral osteochondroplasty. Preoperative and postoperative computed tomography-based 3D reconstructed femur models were generated for each cadaveric specimen. A 3D-3D registration technique was used to merge the preoperative and postoperative models to measure the surface-to-surface distance between the model surfaces. Bivariate correlation analyses were used to determine the correlations between the preoperative, and the difference between the preoperative and postoperative alpha angle (Δ alpha angle) measures and each of the femoral osteochondroplasty variables of surface area (mm2), volume (mm3), maximum height (mm), and mean height (mm). The strength of the bivariate correlations was defined as follows: weak 0.1 to 0.3, moderate 0.3 to 0.5, and strong as 0.5 to 1.00. RESULTS: Bivariate correlations revealed a strong positive correlation between preoperative alpha angle with femoral osteochondroplasty volume (r = 0.899, P = .007) and surface area (r = 0.899, P = .007). No significant correlations were found between the change in alpha angle and the osteochondroplasty variables. CONCLUSIONS: In this study, pre- and postoperative 3D bone models could be used to quantify femoral osteochondroplasty and to determine if the 3D-based metrics are related to clinical alpha angle measures. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: 3D-reconstructed image bone models may be helpful to ensure that adequate femoroplasty is performed intraoperatively, in particular with arthroscopic approach in which visualization may be challenging due to capsular management issues and surgeon experience.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To biomechanically compare the suction seal, contact area, contact pressures, and peak forces of the intact native labrum, torn labrum, 12- to 3-o'clock labral repair, and 270° labral reconstruction in the hip. METHODS: A cadaveric study was performed using 8 fresh-frozen hemipelvises with intact labra and without osteoarthritis. Intra-articular pressure maps were produced for each specimen using an electromechanical testing system under the following conditions: (1) intact labrum, (2) labral tear, (3) labral repair between the 12- and 3-o'clock positions, and (4) 270° labral reconstruction using iliotibial band allograft. Specimens were examined in neutral position, 20° of extension, and 60° of flexion. In each condition, contact pressure, contact area, and peak force were obtained. Repeated-measures analysis of variance was used to identify differences in biomechanical parameters among the 3 conditions. Qualitative differences in suction seal were compared between labral repair and labral reconstruction using the Fisher exact test. RESULTS: Repeated-measures analysis of variance for contact area in neutral position, extension, and flexion showed statistically significant differences between the normalized study states (P < .05). Post hoc analysis showed significantly larger contact areas measured in labral repair specimens than in labral reconstruction specimens in the extension and flexion positions. Region-of-interest analysis for the normalized contact area in the extension and flexion positions, as well as normalized contact pressures in neutral position, showed statistically significant differences between the labral states (P < .05). Finally, 8 labral repairs (100%) versus only 1 labral reconstruction (12.5%) retained the manually tested suction seal (P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: In this in vitro biomechanical model, 270° labral reconstruction resulted in decreased intra-articular contact area and loss of suction seal when compared with labral repair. Clinically, labral reconstruction may not restore the biomechanical characteristics of the native labrum as compared with labral repair. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Labral reconstruction may result in lower intra-articular hip contact area and loss of suction seal, affecting the native biomechanical function of the acetabular labrum. Further biomechanical studies and clinical studies are necessary to determine whether there are any long-term consequences of 270° labral reconstruction.

In the past decade, the number of hip arthroscopy procedures has exponentially increased, primarily for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral lesions. As the techniques have evolved, so has the acknowledgment of the potential complications, including iatrogenic instability that may result from soft-tissue laxity, subtle dysplastic morphologies, or residual defects from capsulotomies in which the capsular closure is insufficient. In most cases, direct capsular repair or plication can be performed at the conclusion of the procedure; however, larger defects, poor-quality tissue, or cases of gross ligamentous laxity may require reconstruction or augmentation. In such instances, several options exist. The purpose of this technical note is to describe a capsular repair augmentation with a bioinductive implant during revision hip arthroscopy.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The effect of preoperative hip strength on outcomes after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is unclear. The purpose of this study was to determine whether preoperative isometric hip strength is associated with outcome scores at 6 months as well as achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS. HYPOTHESIS: Increased preoperative isometric strength will be correlated with short-term postoperative outcomes and will be predictive of achieving higher functional status. STUDY DESIGN: Case series. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 4. METHODS: Data from 92 consecutive patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for treatment of FAIS from March through August 2018 were analyzed. All patients included in the analysis had preoperative measures of isometric hip strength on both affected and unaffected limbs, as well as preoperative and 6-month patient-reported outcome (PRO) scores. Analysis was performed to determine correlations between normalized isometric hip strength measurements and PROs and whether strength measurements were predictive of achieving MCID or PASS. RESULTS: A total of 74 (80.4%) patients had 6-month PROs and were included in the final analysis. Hip extension strength on both sides was correlated with all postoperative PROs (all P > 0.05). Abduction strength on both sides was correlated with postoperative Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living subscale score, achieving MCID on at least 1 score threshold, and reaching the international Hip Outcome Tool-12 threshold score for achieving PASS (all P < 0.05). Regression analysis showed that extension strength on the affected side was the only strength measurement predictor of achieving PASS (1.043; P = 0.049). CONCLUSION: Preoperative isometric hip extension and abduction strength are correlated with 6-month postoperative PRO scores. Furthermore, hip extension strength is a predictor of achieving clinically meaningful outcomes. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: This study highlights the possible importance of preoperative optimization of hip function to maximize outcomes in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS.

PURPOSE: To compare the biomechanical properties of the hip joint with an intact femoral cam lesion, partial cam resection, and complete cam resection. METHODS: A cadaveric study was performed using 8 hemipelvises with cam-type morphology (alpha angle > 55°) and intact labra. Intra-articular pressure maps were produced for each specimen under the following conditions: (1) native cam morphology (intact), (2) cam morphology with incomplete resection (partial), and (3) cam morphology with complete resection (complete). By use of an open technique, resection of the superior portion of the cam morphology was performed with a 5.5-mm burr to create the partial resection, followed by the inferior portion to create the complete resection. In each condition, 3 biomechanical parameters were obtained: contact pressure, contact area, and peak force within a region of interest. Measurements were performed 3 times in each condition, and the average value was used for statistical analysis. Analysis of variance was used to compare biomechanical parameters between conditions. RESULTS: A statistically significant difference was found between the pre- and post-resection alpha angles (62.2° ± 3.9° vs 40.9° ± 1.4°, P < .001). Repeated-measures analysis of variance showed that the normalized average pressure values of hips with complete resection of cam lesions were significantly lower than those of hips with incomplete femoral cam lesions and hips with intact cam morphology (100% vs 93.6% ± 8.3% and 82.6% ± 16.2%, respectively; P < .0001). The percentage reduction of contact pressure in the complete and partial groups was 17.4% and 6.4%, respectively, compared with the intact group. Contact area and peak force showed no statistically significant differences across the 3 conditions (P > .05). CONCLUSIONS: Complete cam resection results in significantly lower intra-articular hip contact pressures than incomplete cam resection and native cam morphology in a cadaveric hip model. These observations underscore the importance of ensuring complete resection of femoral cam lesions in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Previous studies have shown that the most common reason for revision hip arthroscopy in patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome is incomplete femoral cam resection during the index operation. This study shows biomechanical differences associated with partial cam resection compared with the complete cam resection state that may translate to persistent symptoms.

BACKGROUND: Endoscopic repair of a proximal hamstring avulsion promotes precise anatomical repair and lowers the risk of neurovascular injury. DESCRIPTION: Indications for proximal endoscopic repair of the proximal part of the hamstrings include acute tears of 2 tendons with >2 cm of retraction in young active patients, acute complete tears of 3 tendons with >2 cm of retraction, or failed conservative treatment of tears of ≥2 tendons with ≤2 cm of retraction. Repair of a proximal hamstring avulsion is performed using 2 portals. The medial portal is developed percutaneously under fluoroscopic guidance. The lateral portal is developed under direct visualization. The footprint of the hamstrings is identified from medial to lateral. The sciatic and posterior femoral cutaneous nerves must be carefully identified and protected. The avulsed tendons are fixed with suture anchors with the knee in flexion. ALTERNATIVES: Conservative treatment is commonly used to treat injuries of the musculotendinous junction (type 2), incomplete or complete avulsion with minimal retraction (≤2 cm) (type 3 or 4, respectively), and patients with limited mobility or severe comorbidities1. The initial treatments consist of RICE (rest, ice, compression, and elevation), protective ambulation, and then physical therapy. Open repair is used for incomplete or complete avulsion with >2 cm of retraction, or when conservative treatments have failed1-3. Open reconstruction is used for chronic avulsion with tendon retraction of >5 cm4-6. RATIONALE: Endoscopic surgery is a minimally invasive procedure that offers excellent visualization of the subgluteal space without gluteus maximus muscle retraction. In open repair, the inferior border of the gluteus maximus muscle is mobilized to access the ischial tuberosity. The mean distance (and standard deviation) from the inferior border of the gluteus maximus muscle to the hamstring origin has been reported to be 6.3 ± 1.3 cm, which is close to the mean distance from the inferior border of the gluteus maximus to the inferior gluteal nerve and artery, which has been reported to be 5.0 ± 0.8 cm7. Open repair, which requires gluteus maximus retraction, poses an injury risk to the inferior gluteal nerve and artery. Open repair increases the risk of wound infection because the incision involves the perineum8. The feasibility of the endoscopic repair depends on the chronicity and amount of tendon retraction. It is feasible for a symptomatic tear of ≥2 tendons with a retraction of ≤2 cm. Mobilization of the retracted tendon is challenging in endoscopic repair. In acute injuries, the degree of retraction is not critical because the tendon is easily mobilized. Chronic injuries (>2 months) and those with far tendon retraction (>5 cm) are not suitable for endoscopy9. In chronic injuries with incomplete or complete avulsion with minimal retraction (≤2 cm) (types 3 and 4) that have failed conservative treatment, endoscopy is suitable since the tendon is not retracted1. Endoscopic repair can be converted to an open procedure in difficult endoscopic conditions.
RESUMEN
PURPOSE: To determine clinical outcomes of patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy for failure to improve with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and intraoperative evidence of a capsular incompetency as compared with (1) patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy without evidence of a capsular incompetency and (2) patients undergoing primary surgery for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) at a minimum follow up of 2 years. METHODS: Data from consecutive patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy with MRI/arthrogram-confirmed capsular incompetency between January 2012 and June 2016 were analyzed. All revision patients with capsular incompetency was matched 1:1 by age and body mass index to FAIS revision patients without capsular incompetency and primary FAIS patients. Outcomes included the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living (ADL), HOS-Sports Subscale (SS), Modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), pain, and satisfaction. The minimal clinically important difference was calculated for HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, and mHHS. RESULTS: In total, 49 patients (54.4%) of 90 undergoing revision hip arthroscopy had MRI evidence of a capsular incompetency. Most patients were female (79.6%), with a mean age of 30 ± 10.5 years and body mass index of 25.7 ± 5.5. The difference among pre- and postoperative HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, mHHS, and visual analog scale score for pain were all statistically significant (P < .05). Analysis of reported outcomes among matched groups demonstrated statistically significant differences, with the group undergoing primary surgery having the greatest 2-year outcomes. Only 66.7% of patients undergoing revision surgery with capsular incompetency achieved a minimal clinically important difference; however, there was no significant difference when compared with revision patients without capsular incompetency. When compared with patients undergoing primary surgery, the difference in frequency was statistically significant (66.7% vs 91.3%; P < .001). CONCLUSIONS: More than one half of patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy had MRI and intraoperative evidence of capsular incompetency. Revision arthroscopy for capsular incompetency results in significantly improved 2-year outcomes. However, patients undergoing revision for capsular incompetency and intact capsule revision patients reported significantly lower outcomes compared with primary patients. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, Retrospective Comparative Study.

Advances in the understanding of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and advancements in hip arthroscopic techniques, including chondrolabral preservation and labral repair, have led to improvements in success rates, functional outcomes, and return to sports over the past several years. This improvement in outcomes also is attributed to the increased awareness of performing capsular closure after addressing intra-articular hip pathology, to preserve the biomechanical properties of the hip. A number of biomechanical studies have demonstrated that the iliofemoral ligament is a critical component of hip biomechanics, providing stability and limiting joint translation, distraction, and rotation within the normal range of hip motion. The interportal and T-capsulotomy are the most commonly used methods for accessing intra-articular pathology; both techniques require transection of the iliofemoral ligament perpendicular to its fibers, which may lead to micro- and macroinstability if left unrepaired at the end of the procedure. Several clinical studies have been published in the recent literature demonstrating that patients who undergo hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and have an unrepaired capsule have lower functional outcome scores, achievement of meaningful outcomes, success rates, as well as greater failure rates and reported pain when compared with patients who have complete capsular closure. Capsular plication of the vertical T-limb and closure of the interporal limb via plication have been reported to improved outcomes. Degree of plication is dependent on dynamic, intraoperative assessment of hip range of motion. The senior author recommends reflecting of the medial and lateral leaflets after T-capsulotomy with polyethylene sutures to provide better exposure of the peripheral compartment, which can be used for closure. The remainder of the closure is performed with a suture-passing device and approximately 2 to 3 interrupted stitches per limb.

PURPOSE: To compare outcomes of borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) patients undergoing revision hip arthroscopy with 1) patients with BHD undergoing primary hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and 2) patients without BHD undergoing revision hip arthroscopy for FAIS. METHODS: A retrospective cohort study was performed to identify patients who underwent arthroscopy from January 2012 to January 2016 by a single fellowship-trained surgeon, including a 2-year follow-up. Patient demographics, comorbid medical conditions, and preoperative outcome scores were compared between patients with BHD (lateral center-edge angle 18° to 25°) who had revision hip arthroscopy to patients with BHD undergoing primary arthroscopy and patients without BHD (lateral center-edge angle >25°) undergoing revision arthroscopy. Cohorts were matched 2:1 by age and body mass index. Multivariate regressions were used to compare Hip Outcome Score, Activities of Daily Living subscale (HOS-ADL) and Sports subscale (HOS-SS) scores and modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) between the cohorts at 2-year follow-up. Binomial regression analysis was used to determine predictors of achieving minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS). RESULTS: There was no statistical difference in age and BMI between the BHD revision (29.1 ± 8.8 years; 25.5 ± 3.58 kg/m2), BHD nonrevision (28.9 ± 8.5 years; 24.6 ± 3.1 kg/m2), and non-BHD revision (29.15 ± 8.6 years; 25.01 ± 3.2 kg/m2) cohorts. There were no statistically significant differences in 2-year clinical outcomes between BHD revision patients and either BHD primary or non-BHD revision patient groups, but BHD revision patients were significantly less likely to achieve PASS for HOS-SS compared with BHD primary and non-BHD revision groups (P = .047 and P = .031, respectively). CONCLUSION: Surgeons should exercise caution when indicating patients for revision hip arthroscopy with BHD. Although the current study lacks statistical power, the available data suggest that patients undergoing revision surgery with BHD may still experience clinical improvement but be less likely to achieve PASS metrics for several patient-reported outcomes at 2-year follow up. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: III, case-control study.

PURPOSE: To quantify the prevalence of sacroiliac joint (SIJ) abnormalities in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) by use of various imaging modalities and to compare outcomes based on SIJ abnormalities. METHODS: Plain radiographs, computed tomography (CT) scans, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy for FAIS from January 2012 to January 2016 were identified. The exclusion criteria included patients undergoing bilateral or revision surgery, those with a history of dysplasia, and those with less than 2 years' follow-up. On radiographs, the SIJs were graded using modified New York criteria for spondyloarthropathy. CT and MRI scans were reviewed for joint surface erosion, subchondral sclerosis, joint space narrowing, pseudo-widening, bone marrow edema, and ankylosis. Patients with SIJ abnormalities were matched to patients without SIJ abnormalities in a 1:2 ratio by age and body mass index. Outcomes included the Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living (HOS-ADL), Hip Outcome Score-Sports Subscale (HOS-SS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), visual analog scale (VAS) for pain, and VAS for satisfaction. RESULTS: Of 1,009 consecutive patients, 743 (73.6%) were included; 187 (25.2%) showed SIJ changes. Of these 187 patients, 164 (87.7%) had changes on plain radiographs, 88 (47.1%) had changes on CT, and 125 (66.8%) had changes on MRI. SIJ changes on any imaging modality were weakly correlated with pain to palpation of the SIJ (r = 0.11, P = .004) on physical examination. Pain to palpation of the SIJ on physical examination (odds ratio [OR], 1.12; P = .031) and a history of SIJ pain (OR, 1.93; P = .018) increased the odds of having an SIJ abnormality on any imaging modality. After matching, patients without SIJ abnormalities had a significantly greater HOS-ADL (95.4 vs 90.6, P = .001), HOS-SS (91.1 vs 77.5, P < .001), and mHHS (91.3 vs 84.5, P < .001) and a significantly lower VAS pain score (10.9 vs 25.7, P < .001) than patients with abnormalities at a mean follow-up of 34.1 ± 9.7 months (range, 24-54 months). Patients without SIJ abnormalities had greater odds of achieving the minimal clinically important difference for the HOS-ADL (OR, 2.91; P = .001) and for the HOS-SS (OR, 2.83; P < .001) but not for the mHHS (OR, 1.73; P = .081). CONCLUSIONS: A high prevalence of SIJ abnormalities (25.2%) is seen on imaging in FAIS patients. These patients may show significantly inferior clinical outcomes and persistent postoperative pain after FAIS treatment. The results of this study may allow treating orthopaedic surgeons to better inform patients with SIJ abnormalities that they may not achieve clinically significant outcome improvement after hip arthroscopy. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, retrospective comparative study.

BACKGROUND: There is a growing trend for hip arthroscopists to treat patients with borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) without addressing the acetabular coverage. However, the literature of outcomes and failure rates for these patients is conflicting. PURPOSE: (1) To identify whether patients with BHD achieved 2-year similar patient-reported outcome, minimal clinically important difference (MCID), and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) when compared with patients without BHD and (2) to identify predictors for achieving the MCID and PASS among patients with BHD who are undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Data from consecutive patients who underwent primary hip arthroscopy with routine capsular closure for the treatment of FAIS between January 2012 and January 2017 were collected and retrospectively analyzed. Patients with BHD (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA], 20°-25°) were matched 2:1 by age, sex, and body mass index (BMI) to control patients with normal acetabular coverage (LCEA, >25°-40°). Patient-reported outcome, MCID, and PASS were compared between the groups. Multivariate logistic regression analysis identified significant predictors of achieving the MCID and PASS in the BHD group. RESULTS: The MCID in the BHD group was defined as 9.2, 13.7, 8.5, and 15.2 for the Hip Outcome Score-Activities of Daily Living, Hip Outcome Score-Sport Specific, modified Harris Hip Score, and iHOT-12, respectively. Threshold scores for achieving the PASS in both groups were 87.9, 76.4, 78.1, and 60.0. A total of 112 patients were identified as having BHD (LCEA, 20°-25°) and were matched to 224 controls. Both groups saw statistically significant increases in score averages over the 2-year period; however, the differences between them were not statistically significant (P > .05 for all). There was no statistical difference in the frequency of the BHD and non-BHD cohorts achieving the MCID on at least 1 threshold score (86.6% vs 85.6%, P = .837) and the PASS (78.6% vs 79.8%, P = .79). There was, however, a statistically significant difference between the rates of patients with and without BHD achieving the PASS on the modified Harris Hip Score threshold (62.5% vs 74.5%, P = .028). The final logistic models demonstrated that lower BMI (odds ratio [OR], 0.872; P = .029), lower preoperative alpha angle (OR, 0.965; P = .014), and female sex (OR, 3.647; P = .03) are independent preoperative predictors of achieving the MCID, while lower preoperative alpha angle (OR, 0.943; P = .018) and self-reported limp (OR, 18.53; P = .007) are independent preoperative predictors of achieving the PASS. CONCLUSION: Outcome improvements in patients with BHD who are undergoing arthroscopic treatment with capsular closure for FAIS are not significantly different from patients with normal acetabular coverage. Lower BMI, lower alpha angle, absence of limp, and female sex are preoperative predictors of achieving meaningful clinically significant outcome improvements in patients with BHD.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The importance of the hip capsule and its effect on hip biomechanics, functional outcomes, and hip arthroscopy success rates has been demonstrated in recent studies. These results have led to a shift in management of the hip capsule, where an increasing number of surgeons routinely perform complete capsular closure. The purpose of this review is to highlight recent studies evaluating the hip capsule and describe contemporary capsular management and repair. RECENT FINDINGS: Biomechanical studies using cadaveric models have demonstrated that complete capsular closure restores hip distraction, rotation, and extension forces back to the native, intact state. Additionally, capsular closure by plication results in quantifiable intraarticular volume reduction, which increases hip stability, particularly in cases of patulous capsule and hypermobility. Clinical studies have demonstrated superior patient-reported functional outcomes and decreased failure rates when undergoing hip arthroscopy with comprehensive capsular management for femoroacetabular impingement surgery. Complete capsular management, including appropriate capsulotomy and subsequent closure, is critical for restoring biomechanical properties of the hip, ensuring high survivorship and improving functional outcomes. This review provides an update on the effects of contemporary capsular management as well as a detailed description of efficient T-capsulotomy and comprehensive capsule closure via plication.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: There is literature on the association between smoking in patients undergoing orthopaedic procedures and poor short-term outcomes. However, there are few data on smoking as an independent predictor of midterm outcomes in patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). PURPOSE: To evaluate 2-year postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI in current smokers compared with an age- and body mass index (BMI)-matched group with no smoking history. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Consecutive patients undergoing primary hip arthroscopic surgery for FAI between June 2012 and January 2016 were screened for smoking habits. Exclusion criteria included revision or bilateral surgery, dysplasia, and less than 2-year follow-up. Forty current smokers at the time of surgery were matched 1:2 by age and BMI to patients with no smoking history. Outcome measures included the Hip Outcome Score (HOS)-Activities of Daily Living (ADL), HOS-Sports-Specific Subscale (SSS), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and visual analog scale (VAS) for pain and satisfaction. Minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptom state rates were calculated for all patients. RESULTS: All patients demonstrated significant improvements in all outcome measures ( P < .001). Current smokers experienced inferior postoperative HOS-ADL (80.4 vs 89.1, respectively; P = .013) and HOS-SSS (65.8 vs 75.6, respectively; P = .046) scores and greater VAS pain scores (3.2 vs 1.8, respectively; P = .011) than nonsmokers. Current smoking was correlated with inferior HOS-ADL ( r = -0.27, P = .003) and HOS-SSS ( r = -0.18, P = .046) scores and greater VAS pain scores ( r = 0.26, P = .005). Controlling for age, sex, and BMI, smoking was a significant independent predictor of postoperative HOS-ADL (ß = -8.7 [95% CI, -14.3 to -3.0]; P = .003), HOS-SSS (ß = -9.8 [95% CI, -19.5 to -0.2]; P = .046), and VAS pain (ß = 14.6 [95% CI, 4.4 to 23.7]; P = .005) scores. Current smokers had lower odds of achieving the MCID for the HOS-ADL (odds ratio, 0.31 [95% CI, 0.12-0.83]; P = .019) and mHHS (odds ratio, 0.31 [95% CI, 0.10-0.88]; P = .028). CONCLUSION: Current smokers had inferior postoperative HOS-ADL and HOS-SSS scores, increased pain, and lower odds of achieving the MCID for the HOS-ADL and mHHS at 2 years postoperatively than patients without any smoking history.

The purpose of this study was to determine the influence of prior lower extremity surgery on patient reported outcomes following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Consecutive patients who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAIS and a prior history of ipsilateral lower extremity surgery were identified and matched 2:1 by age, gender, and body mass index (BMI) to controls without a history of lower extremity surgery. The minimal clinically important difference (MCID) and patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS) were calculated for HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, and mHHS. Preoperative and 2-year postoperative patient reported outcomes of both groups were compared, and logistic regression was performed to determine whether lower extremity surgery influenced achieving MCID and PASS. A total of 102 patients (24.94%) with prior history of ipsilateral lower extremity surgery were identified. Ipsilateral orthopaedic knee surgery accounted for more than half (53.92%) of all prior surgeries. Patients with a history of ipsilateral lower extremity surgery had significant lower 2-year PROs, satisfaction, and greater pain when compared to patients without lower extremity surgery (P < 0.001 all). A history of ipsilateral lower extremity surgery was a negative predictor of achieving MCID for HOS-ADL and HOS-SS, as well as PASS for HOS-ADL, HOS-SS, and mHHS (P < 0.001 all). In conclusion, patients with prior lower extremity surgery were found to have inferior outcome scores and a lower likelihood of achieving clinically significant outcome improvement compared to patients without a history of lower extremity surgery at two years postoperatively.
