Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The role for the arthroscopic correction of femoroacetabular impingement continues to evolve. As the understanding of hip pathomorphology improves and arthroscopic techniques for managing these disorders advance, the indications for arthroscopic femoroacetabular correction become clearer. Attention to detail with respect to diagnoses and surgical management is critical to optimize outcomes in this patient population. Studies have shown comparable outcomes for arthroscopic management and open surgical techniques. Further study is required to better define the role for arthroscopic versus open surgical management of selected pathomorphologies of the hip.
