I recently have a patient who is undergoing surgery for a labral tear of the hip. Can anyone explain to me or direct me to where I can get information regarding this condition and treatment strategies. I found the problem but did so kind of by accident – I just knew there was something wrong.
Thanks
Though I do not know much about the subject, a quick search in PubMed produced several good responces. I have included a link to one of them, I hope this helps. McCarthy JC. Related Articles, Links
