Hip Labral Repair With Knotless Hip SutureTak® Anchors

In this animation, we will show the repair of a damaged labrum in the hip using a Knotless SutureTak anchor. The labrum in the hip surrounds the hip socket or acetabulum and helps stabilize the hip joint. It may be damaged over time or due to injury and cause a sudden onset of pain. First, your surgeon uses a series of instruments to prepare the bone and creates a hole in the acetabulum. A knotless SutureTak anchor is placed through the guide and into the hole. The suture attached to the anchor is placed around and then through the labrum. Finally, the suture is passed back through the anchor and tightened. Your surgeon may choose to repeat this step with more anchors if the tear is large. This completes the repair of a damaged labrum in the hip.
