Hip arthroscopic portal bridge retraction technique for improved peripheral compartment visualization.


ABSTRACT: Hip arthroscopy has been shown to be an effective technique in managing an increasingly widening set of indications for hip pathology. In any arthroscopic procedure, obtaining good visualization is one of the most critical components to performing a successful operation. Whereas other authors have described various techniques for improving visualization, we describe an additional simple but effective technique in this report. We describe the use of a retracting suture bridge between portal sites that allows for improved visualization of the peripheral compartment in hip arthroscopy, as well as other arthroscopic procedures.
