Routine Interportal Capsular Repair
In this Letter to the Editor response, we address the patient reported outcome measures utilised in this study, our results which are specific to clinical outcomes following repair of an interportal capsulotomy and the relevance of this as compared to trends currently available within the literature.

Anatomic Acetabular Labral Repair
Anatomic labral repair involves protecting the important chondrolabral interface and vascular network during labral takedown and acetabuloplasty, and utilising a suspension-type repair to re-fix the labrum to the acetabular rim. Read More
Routine Interportal Capsular Repair Does Not Lead to Superior Clinical Outcome Following Arthroscopic Femoroacetabular Impingement Correction
While significant improvements at 2 years post-op were observed overall, when evaluating a consecutive series of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement, routine capsular repair did not lead to significantly superior outcomes compared with a non-repair group Read More
Defining the Minimal Clinically Important Difference in Athletes Undergoing Arthroscopic Correction of Sports-Related Femoroacetabular Impingement
Measures of clinically meaningful improvement in patient-reported outcomes within orthopaedics are becoming aminimum requirement to establish the success of an intervention. Read More
Differences in Athletic Performance Between Sportsmen With Symptomatic Femoroacetabular Impingement and Healthy Controls
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a commonly recognized condition in athletes characterized by activity-related hip pain and stiffness, which if left untreated can progress to hip osteoarthritis. Read More
Structured training volume in early adolescence: a risk factor for femoroacetabular impingement?
Sixty-seven athletes (25.53 ± 4.8 years) undergoing surgical intervention for symptomatic FAI were asked to recall the number of hours en- gaged in structured training between the ages of 10-12 and 13-15 years old (FAI group). Read More
The clinical presentation, diagnosis and pathogenesis of symptomatic sports-related femoroacetabular impingement (SRFAI) in a consecutive series of 1021 athletic hips
To examine the pathogenesis and clinical presentation of sports-related femoroacetabular impingement (SRFAI) in a large consecutive series of symptomatic athletes. Read More
Arthroscopic correction of femoroacetabular impingement improves athletic performance in male athletes
To measure the changes in athletic performance in athletes treated arthroscopically for femoroacetabular impinge- ment and compare results to a matched controlled athletic cohort, over a 1-year period. Read More
Anterior Inferior Iliac Spine (AIIS) and Subspine Hip Impingement
Abnormal morphology of the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) and the subspine region of the acetabular rim are increasingly being recognised as a source of symptomatic extra-articular hip impingement. Read More
Extra-articular hip impingement – Case series
Abnormal morphology of the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) is a rarely recognized but important source of extra-articular hip impingement. Chronic progressive symptoms of stiffness and limitation of hip motion with persistent groin pain may place significant restriction on activity. Read More
