Abstract
Diagnostic hip arthroscopy precedes intervention, and surgeons use a variety of metrics to help devise and refine the treatment plan. Hypertrophic and hypotrophic labra should not be treated differently, and both can be treated successfully with labral repair. Macroscopic and tactile evaluation of labral degeneration and dynamic assessment of the labral suction seal should be used to determine whether a labral tear is best treated by labral repair, labral reconstruction, or labral augmentation.
