Resolution of Hip Microinstability Caused by Everted Labrum Through a Targeted Intraarticular Anchor Repair Technique: A Case-Control Study
Our study demonstrated that clinical and functional outcomes are not significantly different between patients operated on for an everted labrum with intra-articular anchor placement technique and those operated on for normal labral tears in FAI.These findings suggest that, when appropriately identified and treated with a technique focused on restoring the labral seal, the everted labrum does not negatively affect long-term postoperative results. Recognition and proper management of this anatomic variant are therefore essential in achieving successful surgical outcomes.
