Video Summary
Joshua Harris presents the benefits of endoscopic gluteus medius repair for patients with lateral hip pain due to abductor tendon pathology. These patients often experience severe pain, difficulty walking, and have usually tried multiple unsuccessful treatments. Endoscopic repair offers significant improvement, is minimally invasive, and allows concurrent treatment of intraarticular and deep gluteal issues. Compared to open surgery, it has lower complication rates and less opioid use. The procedure involves a supine position with specialized portals for visualization and repair. Harris concludes that while nonsurgical treatment often helps, endoscopic repair is generally the preferred surgical option.
