Hip arthroscopy performed with the patient in the supine position is an effective, reproducible procedure. Advantages include ease and simplicity of patient positioning, use of a standard fracture table, operating room layout that is user friendly, familiar joint orientation, and optimal access for all portal placements. All technical aspects of performing the procedure are detailed, including necessary equipment, patient positioning, landmarks, portal placement, and arthroscopic anatomy. Effective and safe performance of this procedure is dependent on careful attention to every detail of the operation.

Background: Low-value care refers to the provision of health services that confer little or no benefit to patients, or have the potential to incur unwarranted harms. A breadth of literature exists investigating geographical variations in rates of potential low-value interventions for musculoskeletal pain. This scoping review aimed to examine the provision of low-value care for osteoarthritis and lower back pain by degree of rurality (e.

As surgeons, we strive to recognize and correct any mistakes that may occur before completing an operation, and importantly, do our best to avoid irreversible mistakes. Over-resection of the femoral cam lesion in patients having hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome has been considered irreversible. While cam under-resection is a technical complication of femoroacetabular impingement surgery to be avoided, avoiding this at the expense of over-resection of the proximal femur is of great concern.

Background: Arthroscopic labral repair of the hip is successfully performed with increasing frequency using either knotless or knotted suture anchors, each with its own risks and benefits.
Purpose: To examine biomechanical and clinical outcomes for labral repair of the hip based on the use of knotted or knotless suture anchors.
Study Design: Systematic review; Level of evidence, 4.

Background: Surgical options for septic arthritis include open arthrotomy or an arthroscopic procedure. The optimal surgical technique remains a matter of debate as acceptable results have been reported for both.
Purpose: To evaluate the efficacy of arthroscopy versus arthrotomy for the treatment of septic arthritis in large and intermediate-sized joints.

Background: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a well-recognized cause of hip pain in adults. The hip-spine relationship between the femur, pelvis, and lumbosacral spine has garnered recent attention in hip arthroplasty. However, the hip-spine relationship has not been well described in patients with FAI.
