Abstract:
BACKGROUND: Metal anchors are not easily accepted by patients as permanent foreign bodies, so bioabsorbable anchors have been gradually applied in orthopedics in recent years. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the effectiveness of absorbable suture anchors for repairing femoroacetabular impingement syndrome combined with acetabular labral tears. METHODS: Eighty patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome combined with acetabular labral tears admitted in Beijing Shijitan Hospital Affiliated to Capital Medical University from February 2014 to February 2016 were selected, and all were treated by absorbable suture anchors under arthroscopy. The Harris hip score, and the Visual Analogue Scale score at baseline, postoperative 1 and 3 months were recorded and compared to assess the effectiveness. The complications and material-host reaction were recorded. The treatment satisfaction was evaluated. The study was approved by the Ethical Committee of Beijing Shijitan Hospital and all patients and their families signed the informed consents. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The Harris hip scores at 1 and 3 years postoperatively in 80 patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome combined with acetabular labral tears were significantly higher than those at baseline, and the Visual Analogue Scale scores were significantly lower than those at baseline (P < 0. 05). (2) The excellent and good rate of treatment in patients at 1 and 3 years was 90. 0% and 97. 50%, respectively, and the treatment satisfaction was 87. 4% and 93. 8%, respectively. The excellent and good rate of treatment and treatment satisfaction presented an increased trend with time, but had no significant difference (P > 0. 05). (3) None appeared with anchor drop off, cartilage injury or material-host reaction. In summary, the method of absorbable suture anchors under arthroscopy has the advantages of minimal invasion, reliable fixation, simple operation, no metal implants, and significant clinical effect to treat femoroacetabular impingement syndrome combined with acetabular labral tears.
