NCT03257709

Brief Summary

This study compares two established surgical treatments for acetabular labral tears. Patients will be prospectively recruited and randomised to either labral repair or debridement. All patients will be followed for 2 years after intervention with a primary outcome assessment at 6 months.

Study Arms (2)

Arthroscopic acetabular labral repair

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Acetabular labral tear will be identified and reattached using suture anchors until a stable repair is achieved. If evidence of FAI is present ie: a cam or pincer lesion is identified then this will be treated with osteochondroplasty (cam) or acetabular rim recession (pincer).

Procedure: Arthroscopic acetabular labral repair

Arthroscopic acetabular labral resection

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

The acetabular labral tear will be identified and its' limits defined. The torn portion of labrum will be resected to a stable edge. As with arm 1 there will be treatment of FAI if identified.

Procedure: Arthroscopic acetabular labral resection

Interventions

Acetabular labral tear will be identified and reattached using suture anchors until a stable repair is achieved. If evidence of FAI is present ie: a cam or pincer lesion is identified then this will be treated with osteochondroplasty (cam) or acetabular rim recession (pincer).
