Where this comes from

Abstract

Current treatment for labral pathology continues to be of some debate; debride, repair, or reconstruct. There are many factors hip preservationists consider when treating the labrum, and the size of the labrum is one. Some feel that small labral tissue with tears cannot function as well as larger tissue when repaired, and others feel that all labrum need removed and reconstructed in a primary setting. This conundrum leads us to continued research to define the best practices in hip preservation.
