Labral Repair With Concomitant Endoscopic Gluteus Medius and/or Minimus Repair: Outcomes at a Minimum 5-Year Follow-up Relative to a Propensity Score-Matched Control Group

Listen to this summary

The authors aimed to compare patient-reported outcomes (PROs), clinically significant outcomes, and reoperation-free survival between patients undergoing concomitant endoscopic gluteus medius/minimus repair and arthroscopic labral repair versus those receiving isolated labral repair. Their findings indicate that both groups experienced significant improvements in PROs over a minimum five-year follow-up, with no significant differences in outcomes or reoperation rates, suggesting that managing abductor abnormalities alongside labral repair does not compromise patient outcomes.
