Summary

The purpose of this pilot study is to determine feasibility of a randomized controlled trial comparing labral repair versus reconstruction in patients over 40 years of age undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS. Specifically, we aim to: (1) estimate the proportion of eligible patients providing consent, (2) estimate the magnitude of the between-groups difference in the primary outcome (International Hip Outcome Tool \[iHOT\] - 33) to aid in sample size calculation for the full study, (3) estimate the compliance in completing the proposed outcome measures to determine the burden of questionnaire completion.
