Key result
Arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement resulted in a 20.5-point improvement in the nonarthritic hip score at 24 months (P < 0.001).

Mean Difference: 20.5
p-value: p=< 0.001
Arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement in community hospitals provides significant improvements in patient-reported outcomes and is safe.
Matsuda et al. (2016) conducted a cohort in femoroacetabular impingement (n=150). arthroscopic surgery was evaluated on nonarthritic hip score (NAHS) (20.5-point improvement, p=< 0.001). Arthroscopic surgery for femoroacetabular impingement resulted in a 20.5-point improvement in the nonarthritic hip score at 24 months (P < 0.001).
