A less-invasive technique for capsular management during hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement.

ABSTRACT: The aim of this work is to describe a new arthroscopic technique for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement that allows a complete articular joint view with maximum protection of the capsuloligamentous complex. This arthroscopic technique avoids injury to the capsuloligamentous complex, preventing the risk of postoperative instability. The diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement was based on clinical and radiographic grounds. An alpha angle greater than 50° was considered pathologic. In this technique, the use of intra-articular devices (retractors) allows us to separate the capsular tissue from the femoral head-neck junction and mobilize the capsule, achieving an adequate joint view without performing a capsulotomy and, consequently, avoiding the complications of capsular damage.

Capsular Preservation Using Suture Suspension Technique in Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement.

Project description:This article describes the use of sutures to enhance visualization while protecting the capsule in both the central and peripheral compartments during hip arthroscopy. We describe first a technique to preserve the proximal capsule cuff while working in the central compartment and then an alternative to the T-capsulotomy while maintaining excellent visualization of the peripheral compartment during femoroplasty of cam-type femoroacetabular impingement. By use of suture suspension of the capsule, multiple goals are achieved: The integrity of the proximal capsule cuff is maintained while aiding in visualization of the central compartment; the iliofemoral ligament is spared, which plays a critical role in preventing microinstability; the necessary space is created to obtain adequate visualization of the peripheral compartment for complete femoroplasty; and operative time is reduced because creation and subsequent repair of the T-capsulotomy can be avoided.

Hip arthroscopy: less invasive technique.

Project description:The popularity of hip arthroscopy has increased significantly over the past decade. It is technically demanding and may be associated with complications such as iatrogenic damage to the articular cartilage or acetabular labrum, compression injuries to the structures in the perineum, and distraction injuries to the leg. Some of these complications can be avoided by paying meticulous attention to the technique and reducing the traction/surgical time. We describe a technique by which the risk of injury to the articular cartilage may be minimized by introduction of the surgical instruments under direct vision, rather than under radiologic control. The described technique is likely to reduce the operating time by addressing the peripheral-compartment pathologies first-without traction. Traction is only required for the central-compartment procedures. Exposure to ionizing radiation is also diminished (eliminated with practice) because the portals are established under direct vision of the arthroscopist.

Surgical Technique of the "Up-The-Neck" View During Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement.

Project description:In the setting of femoroacetabular impingement, arthroscopy versus open surgery confers many advantages. However, inadequate bony resection remains a concern and is the leading cause of revision surgery. Several strategies have been described to ensure a more-complete resection during hip arthroscopy. In this current technique article, the authors describe a modified anterior portal site view called the "up-the-neck" view. This view allows for greater visualization of the femoral head-neck junction and alleviates challenges faced when assessing resection intraoperatively. The "up-the-neck" view is achieved by placing a 70° arthroscope in the anterior lateral portal and subsequently rotating the camera 90°. The head-neck junction will appear horizontally, rather than vertically, on this view, which allows for the easy identification of missed imperfections. This may reduce the need for revision surgery and future investigation is necessary to determine the reoperation rates following this technique.

Management of incarcerating pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement with hip arthroscopy.

Project description:This report describes the arthroscopic management of a case of incarcerating pincer-type femoroacetabular impingement. The hip joint had a marked restriction of range of motion and secondary pain as a result of osteophytes wrapping around the femoral head down the femoral neck. The patient was treated with staged bilateral hip arthroscopy. The procedures were initially performed through the peripheral compartment to remove the incarcerating acetabular rim, followed by arthroscopy of the central compartment with acetabuloplasty and femoral head osteochondroplasty. The patient's treatment has led to an excellent clinical and radiographic result at 24 months' follow-up despite an unrelated pelvic fracture sustained in the postoperative period. This technique emphasizes the capabilities of hip arthroscopy in advanced cases of femoroacetabular impingement as an alternative to arthroplasty for patients with healthy articular cartilage.

The Pie-Crusting Technique for Capsular Management During Hip Arthroscopy.

Project description:Hip arthroscopy is commonly performed for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement and labral pathology. When arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement is performed, a capsulotomy is often utilized to maximize access and allow for improved visualization. When an extended interportal or T capsulotomy is performed, the iliofemoral ligament is transected, which can lead to micro or gross instability. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe an alternative approach to the standard T capsulotomy using a pie crusting technique, which provides improved visualization of the femoral head-neck junction during the femoroplasty without the need for an extended capsulotomy and can also serve to create venting holes that prevent hematoma formation within the capsule.

Periportal Capsulotomy: A Technique for Limited Violation of the Hip Capsule During Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement.

Project description:Hip arthroscopy has become the standard treatment for symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement as patients have shown good outcomes and high satisfaction with this intervention. However, capsular management to gain access for intra-articular procedures remains greatly debated. Capsular closure is advocated particularly in the setting of interportal or T-capsulotomy to avoid complications of instability or nonhealing capsule. We introduce a technique for capsular management through a limited periportal capsulotomy during arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement. In using dilation of the anterolateral and mid-anterior portals without completion of a full interportal capsulotomy, the stabilizing iliofemoral ligament is preserved. We have found that periportal capsulotomy provides safe and sufficient access to the hip joint without necessitating capsular closure.

Capsular Management with Traction-Assisted T-Capsulotomy Technique During Hip Arthroscopy.

Project description:Capsular management, from the initial capsulotomy to capsule closure is essential to success in hip arthroscopy to achieve optimal outcomes. Although an interportal capsulotomy is typically sufficient for resection of proximal cam lesions and for performing central compartment procedures, T-capsulotomy is usually performed when large cam deformity needs to be addressed because it provides a broader field of view. The purpose of this Technical Note is to summarize each step of capsule management and to define a traction-assisted T-capsulotomy technique that allows for accurate placement of the T-capsulotomy while also avoiding damage to the articular cartilage.

Puncture Capsulotomy During Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement: Preserving Anatomy and Biomechanics.

Project description:We describe an arthroscopic technique for the treatment of labral pathology and femoroacetabular impingement that provides excellent access to the central and peripheral compartments while preserving the biomechanically crucial components of hip joint stability. The hip capsule and the ligaments within it have been shown to be integral to hip biomechanical stability. Other popular techniques such as interportal and T-capsulotomy inherently damage the capsuloligamentous complex of the hip and can be associated with postoperative gross instability, micro-instability, heterotopic ossification, and seroma. Capsular closure may mitigate some of these effects but has been associated with capsular insufficiency and requires postoperative restrictions that can be prolonged. Our surgical technique focuses on careful portal placement, replacement when necessary, use of a switching stick to maximize peripheral compartment visualization, and joint access in the most minimally invasive manner while avoiding complications associated with extended capsulotomy. The objective of this Technical Note is to describe a technique by which full access to the joint can be obtained while not disrupting the biomechanics of the joint capsule.

Hip arthroscopy for challenging deformities: global pincer femoroacetabular impingement.

Project description:Pincer femoroacetabular impingement occurs in focal or global forms, the latter having more generalized and typically more extreme acetabular overcoverage. Severe global deformities are often treated with open surgical dislocation of the hip. Arthroscopic technical challenges relate to difficulties with hip distraction; central-compartment access; and instrument navigation, acetabuloplasty, and chondrolabral surgery of the posterior acetabulum. Techniques addressing these challenges are introduced permitting dual-portal hip arthroscopy with central-compartment access, subtotal acetabuloplasty, and circumferential chondrolabral surgery. The modified midanterior portal in combination with a zone-specific sequence of acetabular rim reduction monitored with fluoroscopic templating enables precision subtotal acetabuloplasty. Guidelines for acetabular rim reduction include the following suggested radiographic endpoints: postoperative center-edge angle of 35°, a neutral posterior wall sign, and an anterior margin ratio of 0.5. Arthroscopic zone-specific chondrophobic rim preparation and circumferential labral reparative and reconstructive techniques and tools permit the arthroscopic treatment of these challenging deformities.

Top Ten Pearls for Successful Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement.

Project description:Hip arthroscopy is an increasingly popular procedure used to treat femoroacetabular impingement. However, the procedure is technically challenging with a steep learning curve. To prevent complications and to optimize patient outcomes, proper patient positioning, correct portal placement, and adequate capsular closure are necessary. For central compartment procedures, creation of a minimal interportal capsulotomy, placement of traction stitches, adequate rim trimming, and balanced labral repair are recommended. For peripheral compartment procedures, adequate osteochondroplasty should be performed and assessed intraoperatively. The purpose of this technical note is to describe the senior author's top 10 pearls for a successful hip arthroscopy procedure to treat femoroacetabular impingement.
