Description:

A hip labral tear is one of the most commonly over looked injuries of the hip. The hip joint is a ball and socket joint, and anatomically the hip labrum is located within the hip joint, acetabulum, shaped as small triangular fibrouscartilage. The labrum is heavily innervated, which is why a hip labral tear can be quiet painful. The anterior and superior aspects of the labrum are thought to be the most innervated portions. Most of the labrum is composed of thick, type I collagen fiber bundles arranged parallel to the acetabular rim. Due to the deep location of the labrum and the heavy fibers surrounding the joint, it is difficult to diagnose and symptoms can proceed for a long period of time before accurately treated.
