Dual Cannula Combined With Modified Shoelace Continuous Capsular Closure Technique in Hip Arthroscopic Surgery.

Abstract

The Technical Note aims to present an arthroscopic capsular closure technique at the end of the hip arthroscopy. The technology employs a dual-channel approach and modified shoelace suture technique to continuously suture the hip capsule. Recent studies have indicated that routine intraoperative repair of the articular capsule at the end of the hip arthroscopy is advocated. However, the majority of the hip capsular closure techniques are relatively complex, time-consuming, and bring many complications, which has hindered their widespread use in clinical practice. Herein, we provide an arthroscopic capsular closure technique using the modified shoelace continuous suture in combination with a dual cannula for correcting hip instability during hip arthroscopic surgery of femoroacetabular impingement.
