Effect of Capsular Closure After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome on Achieving Clinically Meaningful Outcomes: A Meta-analysis of Prospective and Comparative Studies.

Filan and Carton 11 found that 89.3% of patients who underwent capsular repair achieved the MCID for the mHHS, while 87.1% who had an unrepaired capsulotomy achieved the MCID for the mHHS, although this difference failed to reach statistical significance.

Given the available data, the current study suggests a significant benefit to capsular closure in terms of hip-specific function as evidenced by the mHHS, and a positive trend for clinically significant improvements in performing activities of daily living, as evidenced by the HOS-ADL.
