Blood treatments for hip labrum tear surgery
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether adding platelet-rich plasma (a blood concentrate), platelet-poor plasma, or bone marrow concentrate during hip surgery helps people with a torn labrum recover better. If you need hip arthroscopy and haven't had prior hip surgery, you may be able to join.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- Your doctor says you need hip arthroscopy (keyhole surgery) for a torn labrum (the cartilage ring around the hip socket).
- You are willing to be randomly assigned to one of three treatments: platelet-rich plasma, platelet-poor plasma, or bone marrow concentrate.
- You have not had any prior surgery on that same hip.
- You speak English well enough to fill out the study surveys.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial looks at whether using BMAC (a substance made from a person’s own bone marrow) during hip arthroscopy helps people with labral tears caused by hip impingement. It aims to improve hip pain and function by combining the injection with the standard surgical repair.
This study tests whether adding a concentrated bone marrow injection during repeat ACL surgery helps healing and recovery better than surgery alone. If you have had a previous ACL reconstruction that failed, you may be eligible.
This trial compares two treatments for a torn labrum (the cartilage ring in your hip socket). One group gets standard arthroscopic (keyhole) surgery, and the other gets the same surgery plus an injection of your own bone marrow cells to help healing.
This trial tests whether injecting a concentrated sample of your own bone marrow during hip arthroscopy improves recovery for people with femoroacetabular impingement (a hip condition where bones rub). It compares outcomes to standard care alone.
This study looks at whether limiting blood flow to the thigh after hip arthroscopy (a hip surgery to repair damage) can improve recovery. You may be able to join if you’re a young adult scheduled for first-time hip arthroscopy for certain hip problems.
This pilot study tests two different surgical approaches to repair a torn or damaged labrum (cartilage ring) in the hip joint for patients over 40. Both approaches are done through minimally invasive hip arthroscopy, and the trial will help doctors understand which method works better and whether a larger study is feasible.
