Endoscopic Shelf Acetabuloplasty for Treating Acetabular Large Bone Cyst in Patient With Dysplasia.

ABSTRACT: Acetabular bone cyst is usually associated with dysplastic secondary osteoarthritis of the hip joint. Acetabular reorientation osteotomy is one of the most common therapeutic options for treating patients with hip dysplasia. However, it may be too invasive for athletes and can also lead to some complications including intraoperative fracture and postoperative bone necrosis especially in patients with acetabular large bone cysts. Endoscopic shelf acetabuloplasty offers a less invasive option for athletic patients with dysplasia of severity greater than those indicated for isolated hip arthroscopy. This Technical Note demonstrates endoscopic shelf acetabuloplasty with bone grafting, simultaneously addressing a large bone cyst and acetabular undercoverage, as part of a comprehensive approach addressing chondrolabral pathology while restoring capsular integrity in an athlete with moderate dysplasia.
