Mid-Term Outcomes of Combined Hip Arthroscopy and Limited Open Capsular Plication in the Non-Dysplastic Hip

CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrates a high (45%) rate of reoperations and persistent symptoms in hips with microinstability treated with combined arthroscopy and open capsular plication. Further mid- and long-term studies evaluating soft tissue plication are needed, as well as comparisons with bony procedures in the setting of microinstability are needed.Level of Evidence: III.PMID:34552415 | PMC:PMC8259207
