We have reviewed the current literature to compare
the results of surgery aimed to repair or debride a damaged acetabular
labrum. We identified 28 studies to be included in the review containing
a total of 1631 hips in 1609 patients. Of these studies 12 reported
a mean rate of good results of 82% (from 67% to 100%) for labral debridement.
Of the 16 studies that reported a combination of debridement and
re-attachment, five reported a comparative outcome for the two methods,
four reported better results with re-attachment and one study did
not find any significant difference in outcomes. Due to the heterogeneity
of the studies it was not possible to perform a meta-analysis or
draw accurate conclusions. Confounding factors in the studies include
selection bias, use of historical controls and high rates of loss
of follow-up. It seems logical to repair an unstable tear in a good quality
labrum with good potential to heal in order potentially to preserve
its physiological function. A degenerative labrum on the other hand
may be the source of discomfort and its preservation may result
in persistent pain and the added risk of failure of re-attachment.

The gold standard treatment of hip dysplasia is a peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO).

This study aimed to analyse the incidence, the operative findings and outcomes of hip arthroscopy after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). We conducted a retrospective study of prospective collected data to report the operative findings and outcomes of hip arthroscopy for recurrent pain following PAO for acetabular dysplasia. Demographic data, radiographic and arthroscopic findings were analysed. Pre- and post-operative patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) were collected. Of 184 PAO patients, 15 hips in 15 patients (8.2%) underwent post-PAO hip arthroscopy with 2 males and 13 females at a mean time of 3.9 ±2.9(0.3–10) years. Hip arthroscopy findings included
Introduction. Femoroacetabular impingement(FAI) is a relatively common cause causes of hip pain and dysfunction in active young adults. The concept of FAI was popularized by Ganz et al in early 2000s. Surgical treatment for FAI has been widely employed over the last two decades. The long term outcome of femoroacetabular osteoplasty (FAO) and risk factors for long-term failure of FAO is less studied. The goal of this single surgeon series is to identify the long term outcome of FAO (minimum 10-year follow-up) and risk factors for surgical treatment failure in these patients. Methods. The prospective database on hip joint preservation identified 1,120 patients who have undergone FAO between January 2005-June 2019. Of these 164 patients (178 hips) have a minimum 10-year follow-up (range, 10–14). The database collects detailed information on patient demographics, clinical history, radiographic and cross sectional imaging findings, intraoperative findings (site and size of chondral lesion,
Our understanding of pre-arthritic hip disease has evolved tremendously but challenges remain in categorizing diagnosis, which ultimately impacts choice of treatments and clinical outcomes. This study aims to report patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) comparing four different condition groups within hip preservation surgery by a group of fellowship-trained surgeons. From 2018 to 2021, 380 patients underwent hip preservation surgery at our center and were classified into five condition groups: dysplasia: 82 (21.6%), femoro-acetabular impingement (FAI): 173 (45.4%), isolated

Aims. The number of patients undergoing arthroscopic surgery of the
hip has increased significantly during the past decade. It has now
become an established technique for the treatment of many intra-
and extra-articular conditions affecting the hip. However, it has
a steep learning curve and is not without the risk of complications.
The purpose of this systematic review was to determine the prevalence
of complications during and following this procedure. Materials and Methods. Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses
guidelines were used in designing this study. Two reviewers systematically
searched the literature for complications related to arthroscopy
of the hip. The research question and eligibility criteria were
established a priori. Pertinent data were abstracted
and analysed. Results. We found 276 relevant studies with a total of 36 761 arthroscopies
that met the inclusion criteria. The mean age of the patients was
36.7 years (1.7 to 70) and the mean body mass index was 25.7 kg/m. 2. (20.2
to 29.2). Femoroacetabular impingement and
Reconstructive acetabular osteotomy is a well established and effective procedure in the treatment of acetabular dysplasia. However, the dysplasia is frequently accompanied by intra-articular pathology such as
Although good to excellent short-term results
of arthroscopic partial limbectomy of the hip have been reported, there
is little information on the long-term outcome of the procedure.
We report a case with a 16-year follow-up. A 34-year old woman presented with a three-month history of severe
pain and limitation of movement of the hip. Plain radiographs and
arthrography showed no abnormality. MRI showed an effusion and a
deformity of the anterosuperior part of the labrum. This was confirmed
as an inverted
In a longitudinal case-control study, we followed 81 subjects with dysplasia of the hip and 136 control subjects without dysplasia for ten years assessing radiological evidence of degeneration of the hip at admission and follow-up. There were no cases of subluxation in the group with dysplasia. Neither subjects with dysplasia nor controls had radiological signs of ongoing degenerative disease at admission. The primary radiological discriminator of degeneration of the hip was a change in the minimum joint space width over time. There were no significant differences between these with dysplasia and controls in regard to age, body mass index or occupational exposure to daily repeated lifting at admission. We found no significant differences in the reduction of the joint space width at follow-up between subjects with dysplasia and the control subjects nor in self-reported pain in the hip. The association of subluxation and/or associated acetabular
Background. The acetabular labrum provides sealing function and a degree of hip joint stability. Previous early(16 month) and mid-term(mean 3.5 years) follow-up of this cohort reported better patient related outcome measures in the refixation group. Methods. We reported patients who underwent labral debridement/focal labral excision during a period before the development of labral repair techniques. Patients with
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is commonly
associated with early hip arthritis. We reviewed our series of 1300
hip resurfacing procedures. More than 90% of our male patients,
with an average age of 53 years, had cam impingement lesions. In
this condition, there are anterior femoral neck osteophytes, and
a retroverted femoral head on a normally anteverted neck. It is
postulated that FAI results in collision of the anterior neck of
the femur against the rim of the acetabulum, causing damage to the
acetabular labrum and articular cartilage, resulting in osteoarthritis.
Early treatment of FAI involves arthroscopic or open removal of
bone from the anterior femoral neck, as well as repair or removal
of
This study reports mid-term outcomes after periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) exclusively in a borderline hip dysplasia (BHD) population to provide a contrast to published outcomes for arthroscopic surgery of the hip in BHD. We identified 42 hips in 40 patients treated between January 2009 and January 2016 with BHD defined as a lateral centre-edge angle (LCEA) of ≥ 18° but < 25°. A minimum five-year follow-up was available. Patient-reported outcomes (PROMs) including Tegner score, subjective hip value (SHV), modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index (WOMAC) were assessed. The following morphological parameters were evaluated: LCEA, acetabular index (AI), α angle, Tönnis staging, acetabular retroversion, femoral version, femoroepiphyseal acetabular roof index (FEAR), iliocapsularis to rectus femoris ratio (IC/RF), and labral and ligamentum teres (LT) pathology.Aims
