A Technique for Endoscopic in Situ Repair of Undersurface Hip Abductor Tears.


ABSTRACT: Endoscopic repair of hip abductor tendons has been shown to have equivalent outcomes and lower complication rates compared with open repair. First reported in 2007, endoscopic repair has become more frequent, with multiple techniques previously described. Frequently, hip abductor tears involve a partial-thickness undersurface component that has been previously addressed endoscopically by making a longitudinal split in the tendon to access the diseased tissue. However, we present a technique for addressing these undersurface tears in situ, accessing the undersurface of the tear by coming under the distal anterior edge of the gluteus medius tendon.
