Hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement and concomitant labral tears: A minimum 2-year follow-up study
Arthroscopy May 11, 2020
Moon JK, Yoon JY, Kim CH, et al. - In this study, the minimum 2-year outcomes of hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and concomitant labral tears were evaluated in Asian patients. Between January 2012 and December 2017, researchers enrolled individuals who had undergone hip arthroscopy for both FAI and concomitant labral tears. They excluded individuals with hip osteoarthritis of Tönnis grade ≥ 2, previous hip surgery, or followed for less than 2 years. They conducted clinical assessments applying the modified Harris hip score, Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Osteoarthritis Index, and the rates of achieving threshold values of the minimal clinically important difference and patient acceptable symptomatic state at the latest follow-up. Analysis included a sum of 73 patients (90 hips, 58 males, 15 females; mean age 34.4 years) who had undergone hip arthroscopy for FAI and concomitant labral tears. The data indicate that for FAI and concomitant labral tears, hip arthroscopy can be an effective treatment in Asian patients as demonstrated in this study, with enhanced PRO scores and reoperation rates. Longer-term research with larger cohorts is needed.
