Figure Lengend Snippet: Intraoperative images during labral repair after acetabular marrow venting visualized using 70° arthroscope through anterolateral portal in left hip. (A) The FiberTak anchor guide (G) is positioned to securely place the anchor on the acetabular rim above the labrum (L). (B) The repair suture (arrow) is passed through the chondrolabral junction and around the labrum using a suture-passing device (P). (C) The repair suture is inserted into the knotless mechanism via the shuttle suture, and tension is applied (curved arrow) to tighten the suture (straight arrow) around the labrum (L). (D) Final construct of labral repair (L) using knotless all-suture anchors (arrow) after acetabular marrow venting, without elevation of capsule or acetabular rim trimming. (A, acetabulum; C, capsule; FH, femoral head.)
Article Snippet: With a 1.8-mm Knotless Hip FiberTak Soft Anchor (Arthrex) securely positioned at the chondrolabral junction beneath the identified labral tear, the loop end of the shuttle suture is passed circumferentially through the defect.
