Labrum: resection, repair and reconstruction sports medicine and arthroscopy review.
The incidence of labral tears has been increasing as techniques to diagnose labral tears have improved. The most common cause of labrum tears is abnormal joint morphology. To treat labral tears, you must also correct any abnormal joint morphology, such as femoroacetabular impingement, at the same time. We describe techniques for labral repair with suture anchors for the torn labrum. When the labrum cannot be repaired owing to lack of adequate or quality tissue, we describe a technique for labral reconstruction using an iliotibial band autograft. Early outcomes for these procedures show patients regain function and are very satisfied with the outcome after surgery.
