Abstract Hip arthroscopy requires a capsulotomy to achieve adequate visualization and access; however, an excessive incision can increase the risk of postoperative instability. This technical note describes a less‐invasive capsulotomy technique guided by the “gluteus minimus sign,” a fibrous membrane connecting the main tendon of the gluteus minimus to
