Arthroscopic Capsular Repair and Stabilization

Consider when hip instability, a feeling of giving way, pain or clicking after activity, and physical examination or imaging suggest capsule laxity/microinstability, and conservative treatment is of limited benefit. The decision is influenced by overall ligamentous laxity, concomitant labral or bone morphology problems, previous surgical history, and athletic demands, and obvious acetabular dysplasia needs to be excluded.
