  The authors analyzed 1935 primary hip arthroscopies, revealing 323 cases of lesions of the ligamentum teres (LT). In the studied cohort with a mean age of 35.0±12.2 years: «…the rate of conversion to total hip joint replacement within 2 years was more than 7 times greater for patients with a LT lesion (20/323 hips, 6.2%) compared with those without (14/1612 hips, 0.9%; P<.001)». «These findings suggest a poorer prognosis for patients with LT injury compared with those without.» Keywords ligamentum capitis femoris, ligamentum teres, ligament of head of femur, lesions, hip joint, replacement, arthroscopy, arthroplasty   Original Article Perumal, V., Woodley, S.
