This report presents a 27-year-old male professional soccer player who developed heterotopic ossification of his hip capsule and gluteus minimus tendon after an arthroscopic hip procedure. After removal of the heterotopic bone, the patient had a symptomatic deficiency of his hip capsule and gluteus minimus tendon. A series of orthobiologic treatments with platelet-rich plasma and bone marrow aspirate concentrate improved the patient's pain and strength as well as the morphologic appearance of the hip capsule and gluteus minimus tendon on magnetic resonance imaging. A series of motion analyses demonstrated significant improvement in his stance-leg ground reaction force and hip abduction, as well as linear foot velocity at ball strike and maximum hip flexion following ball strike in his kicking leg. Level of evidence IV.

In all aspects of orthopaedic surgery, restoring native patient anatomy has shown improved outcomes in comparison to nonanatomic reconstructions. Particular attention has been paid to the hip capsule, as the complex of the iliofemoral, pubofemoral, and ischiofemoral ligaments, as well as the zona orbicularis and iliocapsularis, all play an essential role in hip stability, mechanics, and maintenance of intra-articular pressures. An anatomic approach toward hip arthroscopy also includes labral repair or reconstruction with preservation of the chondrolabral junction and cam resection.

Article Synopsis
  • Hip fractures, especially femoral neck and intertrochanteric fractures, account for about 6.37% of all fractures, with increasing incidence rates each year.
  • A case study of a 55-year-old woman with a femoral neck fracture showed that after one year post-internal fixation, she experienced non-union and was treated with a combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine, leading to significant healing.
  • The patient's condition improved significantly after seven months of treatment, showing no pain or complications, suggesting that this integrated approach may be effective for treating non-union fractures, although more research is needed to validate these findings.*

Purpose: To determine the optimal treatment decision for capsular management after primary hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome.

Methods: An expected-value decision analysis was performed, (1) Organizing the decision problem, (2) determining outcome probabilities, (3) determining outcome utilities, (4) performing fold-back analyses, (5) performing sensitivity analyses. A decision tree was constructed (complete capsule closure vs incomplete closure) and a meta-analysis was conducted.

Arthroscopic Reconstruction of the Acetabular Labrum Using an Autograft Hip Capsule.

JBJS Essent Surg Tech

December 2024

Sports Medicine Center, Department of Orthopaedics, Massachusetts General Hospital, Mass General Brigham, Boston, Massachusetts.

Background: Whereas uncomplicated labral tears with preserved fibers can be effectively treated with use of labral repair techniques, complex tears and hypoplastic labra require labral reconstruction. Standard reconstruction techniques feature grafted tissue that is added to existing, deficient tissue or that is utilized to replace a hypoplastic labrum entirely. However, such approaches utilizing allografts or remote autografts are limited because they often necessitate extensive debridement of the existing labrum to prepare a site for graft implantation, an approach that can damage and devascularize the chondrolabral junction.
