Surgical Reconstruction of Irreparable Hip Abductors With the Use of Allograft: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of Clinical Outcomes

Allograft reconstruction is a salvage procedure for a challenging problem that provides satisfactory clinical outcomes in patients with chronic hip abductor insufficiency not amendable to primary repair. Complication and revision rates were notably low. Future research should compare the clinical outcomes of allograft reconstruction with other muscle transfer techniques to determine the optimal surgical treatment for chronic hip abductor deficiency.
