Postless Hip Arthroscopy Using Standard Maquet Fracture Table With a Pink Hip Kit Positioning Device

The last decade has seen a tremendous increase in hip arthroscopy. As the number of procedures increase, surgeons have come to appreciate the various risks and complications associated with hip arthroscopy. As such, traction-related complications have become more noticeable in this patient population. To combat this issue, in recent years, surgeons have developed effective methods of postless traction to reduce these complications. However, many of these methods rely on extra equipment and its economic costs to the health care delivery. We present a novel technique of postless traction for hip arthroscopy using a fracture table (Maquet), thereby highlighting a practical and economical alternative to the various other techniques of postless traction that have been described in the literature.
