Cam overresection of more than 5% of the diameter of the femoral head on the Dunn view predicts inferior clinical outcomes compared with cam underresection in this population. Furthermore, overresection predicts inferior outcomes after revision hip arthroscopic surgery and higher rates of conversion to THA.
Transtendinous abductor tendon repair is a technique the authors described previously to diagnose and treat undersurface tears of the abductor tendons. In this surgical technique article, the authors describe a technique for knotless repair of undersurface tears of the abductor tendons that does not require a transtendinous split or suture passage through the abductor tendon. Because there is no suture passage through the abductor tendon or knot tying, the potential advantages include expeditious technique, compression of tendon against bony footprint, anatomic repair, and avoidance of knots facing the undersurface of the iliotibial band, which may lead to bursal irritation.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
