Aims: To compare (a) the change in radiological bony morphology between participants with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome who underwent arthroscopic hip surgery compared to physiotherapist-led non-surgical care and (b) the change in radiological bony morphology between participants with FAI syndrome who underwent arthroscopic hip surgery involving cam resection or acetabular rim trimming or combined cam resection and acetabular rim trimming.

Methods: Maximum alpha angle measurements on magnetic resonance imaging and Hip Norm standardized hip measurements on radiographs were recorded at baseline and at 12 months postoperatively. One-way analysis of covariance and independent T tests were conducted between participants who underwent arthroscopic hip surgery and physiotherapist-led non-surgical care. Independent T tests and analysis of variance were conducted between participants who underwent the 3 different arthroscopic hip procedures.

Results: Arthroscopic hip surgery resulted in significant improvements to mean alpha angle measurements (decreased from 70.8° to 62.1°) (P value < .001, 95% CI -11.776, -4.772), lateral center edge angle (LCEA) (P value = .030, 95% CI -3.403, -0.180) and extrusion index (P value = 0.002, 95% CI 0.882, 3.968) compared to physiotherapist-led management. Mean maximum 1-year postoperative alpha angle was 59.0° (P value = .003, 95% CI 4.845, 18.768) for participants who underwent isolated cam resection. Measurements comparing the 3 different arthroscopic hip procedures only differed in total femoral head coverage (F[2,37] = 3.470, P = .042).

Conclusion: Arthroscopic hip surgery resulted in statistically significant improvements to LCEA, extrusion index and alpha angle as compared to physiotherapist-led management. Measured outcomes between participants who underwent cam resection and/or acetabular rim trimming only differed in total femoral head coverage.

Hip arthroscopy has been shown to be an effective surgical treatment with excellent outcomes and a low percentage of complications; however, there are published data regarding iatrogenic complications with hip distraction. Hip distraction is mandatory to gain access to the central compartment and to perform a reliable labral repair or labral reconstruction. Postless hip arthroscopy is very popular nowadays, and several techniques have been published.

The ligamentum teres and its role in hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement: a systematic review.

J Orthop Traumatol

December 2024

Department of Trauma and Orthopaedic Surgery, Faculty of Medicine and Psychology, University La Sapienza, 00185, Rome, Italy.

Background: The ligamentum teres (LT) has received attention in patients undergoing hip arthroscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Indeed, a better understanding of the function of the LT and its implications for clinical outcomes in the presence of a torn LT is required. This systematic review analyses the patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) and the complication rate when an intact or torn LT is encountered during HA for FAI.

Postoperative femoral head cartilage injury after hip arthroscopic treatment for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome and labral tear.

J Orthop Traumatol

Department of Sports Medicine, Peking University Third Hospital, Institute of Sports Medicine of Peking University, 49 North Garden Road, Haidian District, Beijing, 100191, China.

Background: Postoperative femoral head cartilage injury (FHCI) is a rare condition that can be observed in a certain proportion of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy. However, the prevalence and associated factors of FHCI, and the effect of this condition on clinical outcomes still remain unknown.

Patients And Methods: Consecutive patients who were diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) and labral tear and underwent hip arthroscopic treatment in our institute between July 2020 and July 2021 were retrospectively evaluated.

Calcification is a self-limiting disease, characterized by the deposition of calcium, causing severe pain, swelling, and movement disorder. It is mainly found in the shoulder joint but has also been reported in other joints such as the wrist, hip, knee, foot, and ankle. However, calcification of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) has been rarely reported.
