Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Hip Surgery

Background:

  • Atraumatic hip instability is a growing cause of hip pain and dysfunction.
  • Potential causes include femoroacetabular impingement, previous trauma, capsuloligamentous injury, and idiopathic factors.
  • Occult hip instability presents diagnostic challenges, necessitating thorough evaluation of patient history, physical exam, and imaging.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the causes, diagnosis, and management of atraumatic hip instability.
  • To highlight the potential for iatrogenic hip instability following hip surgery.
  • To discuss the efficacy of surgical interventions for atraumatic hip instability.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of atraumatic hip instability.
  • Analysis of diagnostic challenges in occult hip instability.
  • Evaluation of surgical outcomes for hip-preserving procedures.

Main Results:

  • Atraumatic hip instability has diverse etiologies and requires careful diagnostic workup.
  • Iatrogenic hip instability is a serious complication of hip surgery.
  • Both open and arthroscopic hip-preserving surgeries can successfully treat atraumatic hip instability.

Conclusions:

  • Accurate diagnosis of atraumatic hip instability is crucial.
  • Awareness of iatrogenic risks in hip surgery is essential.
  • Surgical management offers effective treatment for atraumatic hip instability.
