Objectives
The aim of this study was to investigate the structural integrity of torn and non-torn human acetabular labral tissue.
Methods
A total of 47 human labral specimens were obtained from a biobank. These included 22 torn specimens and 25 control specimens from patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty with macroscopically normal labra. The specimens underwent dynamic shear analysis using a rheometer to measure storage modulus, as an indicator of structural integrity.
