The acetabular labrum is a dynamic structure important for both hip stability and functional motion. Given its importance, injuries to the labrum result in significant symptomatic dysfunction caused by altered hip kinematics. Although labral repair represents the standard for symptomatic labral tears with underlying bony deformity, complex labral tears or those with significant degeneration may not be amenable to repair and require labral reconstruction. Labral reconstruction has been shown to r ...[more]
