A Multicenter Comparative Study. PG - 2624-2631 LID - 10.1177/0363546518785966 [doi] AB - BACKGROUND: Iliopsoas fractional lengthening (IFL) continues to be a controversial procedure in hip arthroscopy. HYPOTHESIS: Patients who underwent arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and a labral tear either with or without IFL would experience favorable outcomes, and there would be no difference in postoperative patient-reported outcomes (PROs) between the 2 groups at minimum 2-year follow-up. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3. METHODS: Data from July 2009 and April 2015 were retrospectively reviewed. Patients were eligible if they had hip arthroscopy for both FAI and labral tear treatment with IFL and without IFL. IFL was indicated for painful internal snapping. Minimum postoperative follow-up was set to 2 years. The authors calculated the modified Harris Hip Score, International Hip Outcome Tool-12, Hip Outcome Score-Activity of Daily Living Score, Hip Outcome Score-Sports Specific Subscale, Non-Arthritic Hip Score, visual analog scale for pain, patient satisfaction, minimal clinically important difference (MCID), and the percentage of patients who achieved patient acceptable symptomatic state (PASS). Revision surgeries and conversions to total hip arthroplasty (THA) were documented. RESULTS: 351 hips (307 patients) met the necessary inclusion criteria in the IFL cohort, with a mean +/- SD follow-up time of 42.5 +/- 18.1 months. For the control cohort, 392 hips (354 patients) were included, with a mean +/- SD follow-up time of 43.9 +/- 19.6 months. Both groups showed significant postoperative improvement in 2-year follow-up PROs. The group with iliopsoas lengthening showed comparable results to the control group with respect to PRO improvement, MCID, PASS, and rates of revision or THA conversion. CONCLUSION: This comparative cohort study demonstrated that treatment of painful internal snapping syndrome with arthroscopic IFL, in the setting of FAI and a labral tear, is a safe procedure with good short- to mid-term follow-up results and associated improvement in PROs. Patients who underwent IFL showed similar outcomes compared with a control group treated for FAI and labral tear without IFL. In appropriately selected patients, arthroscopic IFL did not adversely affect clinical outcomes compared with patients who did not need IFL.
