Hip Labral Tear

Assessment and treatment of symptomatic acetabular labral tears and associated structural hip pathology.

Overview

Assessment and treatment of symptomatic acetabular labral tears and associated structural hip pathology.

Assessment

Evaluation is individualized and may include a focused history, physical examination and appropriate imaging. Treatment decisions are based on symptoms, functional limitations, anatomy, activity level and patient goals.

Treatment

Non-operative treatment is considered when appropriate. Surgery is recommended only when the expected benefit is reasonable for the individual patient and the condition is suitable for operative management.

Recovery

Recovery depends on the specific procedure, tissue healing requirements and rehabilitation goals. A structured rehabilitation plan is tailored to the operation and the patient.
