Most military service members return to activity duty with limitations after surgery for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome: A systematic review

Arthroscopy Sep 03, 2018

Reiman MP, et al. - Researchers sought to determine which proportion of active-duty service members return to duty (RTD), RTD without limitations, which surgical intervention returns these personnel at a better proportion and with the ability to perform their military duties after surgery for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome vs the pre-injury state. In the included studies, RTD is poorly defined. For at least 1 to 2 years after surgery for FAI syndrome approximately 75% of service members remain on active duty, whereas only approximately 47% do so without limitations at mid-term follow-up; as substantiated by the limited evidence. Similarly, continued pain and functional limitations after FAI syndrome surgery are still reported by the service members, despite improvements in patient-reported outcome measures.
