TI  - Editorial Commentary: Long-Term Follow-up After Endoscopic Gluteal Repair Plus 
      Hip Arthroscopy Shows Durable Results Using Validated Patient-Reported Outcome 
      Scores That Largely Exceed the Minimal Clinically Important Difference and 
      Patient Acceptable Symptom State.

AB  - Gluteus medius and minimus tendon pathology is a common cause of lateral hip 
      pain. In patients who are dissatisfied with their hip condition following 
      nonsurgical treatment, gluteal repair has demonstrated excellent short-, mid-, 
      and, now recently, long-term subjective patient-reported and objective 
      clinician-measured outcomes. In patients with peritrochanteric hip pain, the 
      proportion of their overall hip pain may be influenced by the hip joint due to 
      conditions like femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, acetabular dysplasia, 
      labral tears, and arthritis. Thus, surgical decision-making must include 
      consideration of also addressing the joint at the same time as the gluteal 
      repair. This is sometimes challenging due to the high frequency of observing 
      labral injuries and cam/pincer/dysplasia morphology in patients without symptoms 
      due to the "radiographic abnormalities." Labral pathology is also more prevalent 
      in older patients, who happen to also be those individuals with symptomatic 
      gluteal tendon pain. Both open and endoscopic approaches to the gluteal tendons 
      have advantages and disadvantages without significant outcomes differences in the 
      short- or mid-term. Long-term clinical follow-up of patients treated with 
      endoscopic gluteal repair with or without concomitant hip arthroscopy should be 
      included in large national and international prospective registries using 
      validated, reliable, and responsive patient-reported outcome scores, with 
      clinical importance assessed using the minimal clinically important difference, 
      patient acceptable symptom state, substantial clinical benefit, and maximal 
      outcome improvement.
