Overview

Systematic review compares outcomes of various capsulotomy techniques in hip arthroscopy, suggesting similar effectiveness.

Key Points

  • To evaluate the effectiveness of different capsulotomy techniques in hip arthroscopy through various patient-reported outcome measures.
  • Systematic review of studies from PubMed, Scopus, and Embase until June 2024
  • Inclusion of studies assessing outcomes at minimum 2-year follow-up
  • Metaregression models used to adjust for heterogeneity.
  • Combined puncture and periportal capsulotomy techniques yielded similar outcomes to traditional techniques in modified Harris Hip Score (P = .274)
  • Revision arthroscopy and total hip arthroplasty rates showed no significant difference among techniques
  • Metaregression found baseline modified Harris Hip Score significantly influences mean differences with P = .0006.
