Arthroscopy of the hip: factors affecting outcome

Joseph McCarthy et al. Orthop Clin North Am. 2013 Oct.

Abstract

Hip arthroscopy is a rapidly progressing field that has advanced in function and survivorship over the past decade. As increasing literature is published on outcomes of hip arthroscopy, a retrospective review has allowed for the identification of factors that affect survivorship. Within this review, the authors present the factors identified to date that affect survivorship after hip arthroscopy while raising questions about the future direction of the field.

Keywords: Femoral acetabular impingement; Hip arthroscopy; Labral tear; Osteoarthritis; Survivorship.
