-
- An arthroscopic approach can be used to release a portion of the iliotibail band followed by removal of the trochanteric bursa using mechanized shaver blades.
-
- Following capsulotomy of the hip capsular structures to gain better access to the hip joint, employ suture-passing devices to shuttle suture through the remaining leaflets of the capsule to reapproximate them.
-
- A capsulotomy is typically made through the iliofemoral ligament once the anterolateral and midanterior portals are established, allowing better access to the hip joint. This is performed with a retractable cannulated knife and/or CapsuleCut™ disposable blade, shavers, and radiofrequency devices.
-
- Diagnostic hip arthroscopy is pursued when all conservative measures have been exhausted. The Arthrex Hip Instruments facilitate quick, safe and reproducible joint access.
-
- Exposure of the Iliopsoas tendon requires capsulotomy to the level of the Psoas notch. A small portion of the Iliopsoas tendon is then released to correct internal snapping of the tendon.
-
- To resect the trochanteric bursa, introduce the arthroscope deep to the IT band and make a small window. Most of the pathology lies just posterior to the greater trochanter. A diamond shape is often made to release the IT band to treat external snapping hip syndrome.
-
- Achieve labral fixation by placing sutures through the labrum in simple or labral base stitch configurations using any Arthrex suture passer. Standard and Knotless SutureTak® and FiberTak® anchors should be placed prior to passing the repair suture, while PushLock® anchors should be placed after passing the repair suture.
-
- Place sutures in the labrum using a number of Arthrex suture-passing devices and fixate the labrum to the acetabulum using circumferential or labral base stitch techniques. Insert SutureTak® and FiberTak® suture anchors into the acetabulum before passing suture through and around the labrum. PushLock® suture anchors require the suture to be …
-
- Microfracture cartilage repair is performed by creating tiny fractures in the underlying bone of an OCD lesion using Chondro Picks. The resulting blood clot initiates the development of fibrocartilage, which often will fill the defect site.
-
- Removal of the Cam or Pincer lesion with or without takedown and repair of the acetabular labrum. This may also include removal of the Cam lesion.
-
- In an open or endoscopic manner, the ischial tuberosity of the pelvis is located and debrided. The tendinous origin of the hamstring muscle group is found and reattached back to the ischial tuberosity.
-
- The hamstring tendon is typically avulsed directly from the lateral aspect of the ischium without bony involvement.
-
- Depending on surgeon preference, a shaver or curette is utilized to debride damaged or diseased articular cartilage surrounding the site of the chondral defect.
-
- External snapping hip requires release of the iliotibial band and resection of the trochanteric bursa. Internal snapping hip requires release of the iliopsoas (psoas) tendon. These procedures are often performed with shaver blades, radio frequency probes, and knife blades.
-
- Suture passing is made easy with the wide variety of instruments from Arthrex, including SwiftStitch™, SutureLasso™, BirdBeak®, Penetrator™, Hip Labral Scorpion™ and CapsuleClose Scorpion™ suture passers.
