Arthroscopic Suture Fixation of Os Acetabuli With Absorbable Suture Anchors-A Double-Pulley Technique.


ABSTRACT: Os acetabuli is a bone fragment with unknown origin and isolated at the acetabular rim that may be associated with cam-type femoroacetabular impingement. If this bone fragment is too large and threatens the stability of the hip joint after resection, fixation would be recommended. However, conventional rigid fixation with metal screws has some disadvantages. We describe an arthroscopic suture fixation of the Os acetabulum with absorbable anchors penetrating the bone fragment and secured by tying knots in a double-pulley fashion simultaneously. This technique provides a new feasible solution for the fixation of Os acetabuli, avoiding any metal implants and potential damage to the joint.
