Hip arthroscopy

Abstract

Hip arthroscopy is a safe method for treating a variety of pathological conditions that were unknown until a decade ago. Femoroacetabular impingement is the commonest of these pathological conditions and the one with the best results when treated early on. The instruments and surgical technique for hip arthroscopy continue to evolve. New indications for hip arthroscopy has been studied as the ligamentum teres injuries, capsular repair in instabilities, dissection of the sciatic nerve and repair of gluteal muscles tears (injuries to the hip rotator cuff), although still with debatable reproducibility. The complication rate is low, and ever-better results with fewer complications should be expected with the progression of the learning curve.

“…Hip arthroscopy has emerged as a minimally invasive method for the diagnosis and treatment of several intra- and extra-articular hip conditions. 1 This approach provides excellent visualization of the joint surface and allows the surgeon to identify early stages of cartilage damage. 2 Hip joint cartilage lesions are caused mainly by trauma, inflammatory arthritis, acetabular dysplasia, or femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).…”

Comparative efficacy analysis of ultrasound-guided quadratus lumborum block and lumbar plexus block in hip arthroscopy: a pilot prospective randomized controlled trial

“…Arthroscopy has become the gold standard for the early diagnosis and treatment of hip joint diseases [ 1 ]. Indeed, hip arthroscopy is an increasingly common procedure thanks to advanced surgical tools and method refinement [ 2 ], which helps address pathology in and around the hip joint.…”
