Capsular plication in the non‐deformity hip: impact on post‐operative joint stability

PURPOSE AND HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this study was to evaluate the hip joint range of motion after different capsular plication. The study hypothesis proposed that capsular plication after hip arthroscopy may reduce hip external rotation and thus prevent the hip joint instability created by arthroscopic capsulotomies. METHODS: Six fresh frozen human cadavers were studied in the intact state (5 males, 1 females) for a total of 12 non-deformity …
