Özet

Capsular management, from the initial capsulotomy to capsule closure is essential to success in hip arthroscopy to achieve optimal outcomes. Although an interportal capsulotomy is typically sufficient for resection of proximal cam lesions and for performing central compartment procedures, T-capsulotomy is usually performed when large cam deformity needs to be addressed because it provides a broader field of view. The purpose of this Technical Note is to summarize each step of capsule management and to define a traction-assisted T-capsulotomy technique that allows for accurate placement of the T-capsulotomy while also avoiding damage to the articular cartilage.
