CapsuleClose Scorpion™ Suture Passer (Video)
This animation demonstrates the steps for closing an interportal capsulotomy with the CapsuleClose Scorpion™ suture passer through a single portal. The steps for loading and unloading the device are outlined, as well as how to pass mattress stitches through the iliofemoral ligament for closure at the end of a hip arthroscopy.
Hip Labral Reconstruction (Video)
Hip labral reconstructions are typically performed in revision hip surgery where a previous labrectomy was done, resulting in a compromised suction seal of the hip joint. A knotless technique utilizing the 2.9 mm PushLock® with #2 FiberWire® is ideal, as it provides a low profile graft construct and simple graft tensioning with minimal steps. Highlighted are the steps required for measuring the segmental labral defect and subsequent graft preparation and implantation. All the components shown are conveniently available in the Hip Labral Reconstruction Kit and can be used for both labral refixation and reconstruction techniques.
