Early dislocation was more common in the resection group compared to the repair group (2 hips vs. 0 hip, respectively), albeit not significantly (1.03% vs. 0%, p ​= ​0.241).</p></div><div><h3>Conclusion</h3><p>Our results demonstrated that the clinical benefit of the anterior capsule repair for preventing dislocation was limited in ALS.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":100795,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Joint Surgery and Research","volume":"2 ","pages":"Pages 163-167"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2949705123000233/pdfft?md5=255b4623e855fca8cbc16123a133e951&pid=1-s2.0-S2949705123000233-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50194876","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
