Sumario:Arthroscopic labral ‘takedown’ and refixation is utilized to permit adequate visualization and resection of the acetabular rim deformity, in patients with pincer or mixed femoroacetabular impingement. Deficiencies exist in present techniques, which include disruption of vital anatomical support and vascular structures to the labrum and chondrolabral junction, drill or anchor articular penetration risk, bunching, elevation and instability of the labrum. A new operative technique is described which preserves the important chondrolabral interface, accurately restoring the ‘flap seal’ of the acetabular labrum while minimizing vascular disruption and reducing the risk of drill and anchor penetration. A prospective series of 123 consecutive cases of pincer or mixed femoroacetabular impingement, treated with arthroscopic labral cuff refixation and preservation of the chondrolabral interface, is reported; operative technique and 2-year outcomes are presented.
