Overview

Retrospective study evaluates long-term outcomes in patients after hip arthroscopy, highlighting success and survivorship rates.

Key Points

  • To assess the long-term clinical and functional outcomes of hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome over a minimum follow-up of 15 years.
  • Retrospective analysis of 117 patients undergoing arthroscopy for FAIS from July 2002 to July 2010.
  • Review of surgical videos, radiographic images, and clinical data to assess demographics, lesion characteristics, and surgical procedures.
  • Patient-reported outcomes measured using iHOT-33 after a minimum follow-up of 15 years.
  • Seven patients (7.7%) required total hip arthroplasty conversion at a median of 6.7 years post-procedure.
  • Remaining patients achieved a median iHOT-33 score of 88 points after a median follow-up of 17.5 years.
  • Survivorship free from arthroplasty was 92.3% at 15 years, with no major complications observed.
