Abstract
Hip arthroscopy techniques have continued to evolve for femoroacetabular impingement and other intra-articular pathologies. However, there is still debate about the importance and technique of routine capsular closure. We present an efficient and reliable technique for creating a watertight capsular closure to prevent iatrogenic macro and microinstability. This Technical Note details our stepwise technique using figure of eight sutures to obtain a complete and secure capsular closure.Entities:
