Isolated Arthroscopic Debridement of Acetabular Labral Tears: High Rates of Failure and Conversion to Total Hip Arthroplasty at 13-Year Minimum Follow-up.

Isolated labral debridement was found to result in high rates of failure and reoperation, with a third of patients being converted to arthroplasty and half of patients meeting criteria for reoperation or clinical failure. Of note, for patients remaining reoperation-free, satisfactory outcome scores were observed.
