Pdf Summary

A meta-analysis of 36 studies found that capsular repair during hip arthroscopic surgery improves patient-reported outcomes (PROs). The analysis included 5,132 procedures and showed that capsular repair resulted in higher postoperative PRO scores. The effect of repair on score change was also significantly better. The findings were consistent across different surgical indications. The study controlled for preoperative scores and surgical indication, concluding that capsular closure leads to better outcomes. However, further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
