Acetabular labral tears have become an increasingly common diagnosis with the advancement of imaging techniques and hip arthroscopy. Therefore, understanding the anatomic significance, healing potential, and associated pathologies of labral tears is helpful. Furthermore, recognizing the clinical picture and understanding appropriate imaging techniques, such as magnetic resonance arthrography, are essential to making a correct diagnosis. This article reviews the relevant anatomy, diagnosis, and management of acetabular labral tears for physicians of all specialties who may be involved in the care of patients with labral tears. Short-term results of labral repair have been promising, but further studies are needed to clarify appropriate indications and long-term results of treatment.
