Arthroscopic acetabular labral repair in patients over the age of 60 years: A matched case-control study

Arthroscopy Apr 23, 2019

Byrd JWT, et al. - Results of 21 consecutive patients older than 60 years undergoing labral repair with minimum 1-year follow-up were assessed and compared with those of a contemporaneous group of 21 patients aged 18 to 55 years matched for sex, degree of chondral damage. As per outcomes, arthroscopic labral repair may benefit patients older than 60 years with improved outcomes, a modest rate of conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA), and a small risk of complications. These patients had results comparable to those of younger adults. Conversion to THA was indicated among those with combined bipolar grade IV and grade III articular damage regardless of age.
