Labral tears with insufficient substance can be treated with augmentation techniques, reconstruction, or grafting techniques. If the remnant labrum is very scarce, reconstructive options would be the most appropriate. We present the case of a 40-year-old female patient who had undergone two failed hip arthroscopies due to labral tears. Following the original technique described by Ganz, a surgical hip dislocation was performed, and the Ligamentum Teres Capitis was resected to cover the labral defect. To our knowledge, this is the first report of labral reconstruction using the Ligamentum Teres Capitis in our literature. Despite poorly reported outcomes in patients with previous procedures, surgical repair using the Ligamentum Teres Capitis has proven to be a viable option.

Keywords : Hip; acetabulum; autografts; labral tear; surgical hip dislocation.
