Anatomic Arthroscopic Ligamentum Teres Reconstruction for Hip Instability.


ABSTRACT: There has been growing interest in recent years on the functional importance of the ligamentum teres and its role in hip stability. Partial or complete tearing has previously been treated with debridement or radiofrequency ablation with good results; however, a subset of patients will continue to experience persistent pain or instability with injury to this structure. Advances in arthroscopic instruments and techniques have led to our ability to provide improved care for these patients by performing a ligamentum teres reconstruction. The purpose of this technical note is to describe our method of ligamentum teres reconstruction with a tibialis anterior allograft.
