This study identified the most appropriate hip rehabilitation exercises for each phase to strengthen the gluteus medius muscle after hip arthroscopy and those to avoid when iliopsoas pain or tendinitis is a concern.
After the 4-phase rehabilitation program, the patient demonstrated improvement in all areas of high-level function after an arthroscopic intra-articular repair of the hip. The preoperative management to return to sport is outlined, with clinical outcomes and criteria for return to competition.
