Outcome of arthroscopic treatment for symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement

BACKGROUND Recently, arthroscopic-based treatment for hip-related pain with radiological findings of femoroacetabular impingement and labral lesions has been developed.We aim to present clinical outcome in a single centre patient cohort of patients treated arthroscopically for hip-related pain due to femoroacetabular impingement. METHODS A total of 117 consecutive patients operated in 2009-20...
