Hip labral tear involves the ring of cartilage (labrum) that follows the outside rim of your hip joint socket.
Along with cushioning the hip joint, the labrum acts like a rubber seal or gasket to help hold the ball at the top of your thighbone securely within your hip socket.

What is aComplex macerated tear of the glenoid labrum?
An injury, implied not to be acute (i.e. is old), of the shoulder...more specifically, the labrum is a cartilaginous (not bone, like the front of the nose) structure that helps the glenoid (a part of the scapula that forms the medial/inside bony shoulder joint) hold the humerus (upper arm bone) in place. To use the term macerated implies chonic wear and tear of the labrum with a loss of its normal shape, usually as a result of osteoarthritis of the glenohumeral joint (loss of the joint cartilage between the humerus and glenoid). A labral tear is a more discrete and definable injury that can be graded as to its severity, more than can be discussed here. If complex it means not simple and linear...if complex and macerated, this implies that the tear is a result of chronic degenerative change, with a loss of the normal labral morphology (shape) and a more definable tear that may or may not cause symptoms. These types of tear/degeration are very common in older patients, and often not symptomatic (or possibly, are not symptomatic because the patient stops the activity that caused the degeration)

In both cases (muscle or Labral), after surgery, re-injury is more likely than in a patient who has had not previous history of problems. However with proper rehab and continual vigilence and exercise, the risk of re-injury can be reduced.
What does grossly intact mean?
It's like "gross anatomy". It's referring to the big structures of the body, the stuff you don't need a microscope to see. So the doctor means that your labrum (the cartilage in your shoulder) looked OK ("intact"), and you don't have an obvious labral tear. There could be micro-tears in the cartilage, but the doctor didn't look at it with a microscope. So you don't have a labral tear, which is good news. The bad news is that they don't know the source of your shoulder pain, if you're having any. But if they were just checking you out because you had an accident involving your shoulder, and you feel OK, this confirms that.
