Arthroscopic femoral osteochondroplasty for cam lesions with isolated acetabular chondral damage.

Osteochondral mosaicplasty along with osteochondroplasty of the femoral head in femoroacetabular impingement: a case report.

Although femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is included in the etiology of lesions involving the acetabular labrum and acetabular cartilage, it is one of many possible reasons behind osteochondral lesions in the femoral head. Herein, we present clinical findings and outcomes of two cases with osteochondral defects and cam type impingement of femoral head. Both cases underwent autologou...

Femoral neck exostosis, a manifestation of cam/pincer combined femoroacetabular impingement.

We present 2 cases of cam/pincer combined femoroacetabular impingement treated arthroscopically with labral debridement, acetabuloplasty, and femoral head recontouring. In both cases there was essentially no evidence of osteoarthritis of the hip. However, in both cases raised exostoses were evident on the anterolateral femoral neck in the region that commonly comes into contact with the acetabu...

Treatment of failed arthroscopic acetabular labral debridement by femoral chondro-osteoplasty: a case series of five patients.

Femoroacetabular impingement is recognised as being a cause of labral tears and chondral damage. We report a series of five patients who presented with persistent pain in the hip after arthroscopy for isolated labral debridement. All five had a bony abnormality consistent with cam-type femoroacetabular impingement. They had a further operation to correct the abnormality by chondro-osteoplasty o...

Arthroscopic Management of Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) in Adolescents

PURPOSE To report the outcomes of hip arthroscopy for adolescent patients with symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in relation to a control group of adult patients treated arthroscopically for FAI. METHODS All patients undergoing hip arthroscopy were assessed with a modified Harris Hip Score preoperatively and postoperatively at 3, 12, 24, and 60 months. Inclusion criteria were all...

Long-Term Benefit of Arthroscopic Autologous Matrix-Induced Chondrogenesis Compared to Microfracture for Femoral Acetabular Impingement-Induced Chondral Lesions
