Failed labral reconstruction of the hip can be successfully revised to another labral reconstruction: improved patient-reported outcomes at a minimum of 2-year follow-up.

The purpose of this study was to validate the success of revision arthroscopic circumferential allograft labral reconstruction (CLR) in nonarthritic hips, which, in the rare case of failure, had previously undergone labral reconstruction by the same surgeon. Using a minimum of 24-month follow-up, data from 24 hips having undergone revision CLR were analyzed to determine improvements in patient-reported outcomes (PROs). All included cases completed a minimum of 24 months follow-up, with a success rate of 96%.

Treatment of Severe Pincer-Type Femoroacetabular Impingement With Arthroscopic Significant Acetabular Rim Correction and Circumferential Labral Reconstruction Improves Patient-Reported Outcome Measures.

Purpose: To validate an arthroscopic approach for performing significant acetabular rim correction and circumferential labral reconstruction required to treat severe pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement.

Methods: Using a minimum of 2-year follow-up, data from 48 hips, including 47 patients (11 male, 36 female; mean age of 42 years) having undergone significant arthroscopic acetabuloplasty for severe pincer impingement (center edge angle >45°) with concomitant circumferential allograft labral reconstruction were analyzed to determine improvements in patient-reported outcomes and degree of radiographic correction.

Results: Findings demonstrated a 98% success rate, including substantial improvements on all radiographic measurements and patient-reported outcomes.
