Hip arthroscopy is expanding to treat conditions like femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and hip instability. New techniques offer promising outcomes for labral repair and other hip disorders.

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Arthroscopy

Background:

  • Hip arthroscopy indications are expanding due to increased understanding of hip diseases.
  • Advancements in instrumentation and surgical techniques enable arthroscopic treatment of various hip disorders.
  • Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a recognized cause of progressive intra-articular chondral and labral injury.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the expanding role and techniques of hip arthroscopy in managing hip disorders.
  • To discuss arthroscopic approaches for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral tears, snapping hip, and hip instability.
  • To highlight emerging applications in the extra-articular peritrochanteric space, including abductor tendon repair.

Main Methods:

  • Review of current literature on hip arthroscopy for various hip pathologies.

  • Discussion of arthroscopic techniques for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral pathology, and snapping hip.
  • Exploration of arthroscopic management of hip instability and conditions in the peritrochanteric space.

    • Main Results:

    • Arthroscopic techniques are effective for FAI, labral repair, snapping hip release, and hip instability.
    • Early outcomes of arthroscopic FAI treatment compare favorably with open procedures.
    • Arthroscopic treatment of snapping hip is successful for persistent symptoms, allowing joint evaluation.
    • Hip arthroscopy shows efficacy in treating certain cases of hip instability.
    • Arthroscopic treatment in the peritrochanteric space is emerging but requires further study.

    Conclusions:

    • Hip arthroscopy is a versatile tool with expanding indications for complex hip pathologies.
    • Arthroscopic techniques, including labral repair and FAI treatment, offer favorable early outcomes.
    • Further research and longer-term studies are needed to fully define the role of hip arthroscopy, particularly for peritrochanteric conditions.
