Hip arthroscopy technique and complications - 19/11/10
Summary |
Hip arthroscopy is not a new technique but the seemingly limited indications and technical challenges involved have discouraged many since Burman documented his initial experiences (Burman, 1991 [1 ]). The current renaissance is largely driven by the expanding indications particularly in the management of femoroacetabular impingement. The figures from our own unit illustrate this well with 40% of hip arthroscopies in 1990 being purely diagnostic as compared with less than 5% at the present time. The focus of this chapter is the technical aspects of hip arthroscopy and the potential complications that can occur.
