Right Versus Left Hip Arthroscopy for Surgeons on the Learning Curve
نویسندگان
چکیده
Hip arthroscopy is a technically demanding procedure that is currently characterized by a "steep" learning curve. Therefore, achieving an advanced technical level is often challenging, especially for the amateur hip arthroscopist. Hand laterality when training in hip arthroscopy is an aspect that has been omitted. In addition, the technical differences regarding the handling of the surgical instruments when performing hip arthroscopy on the left versus right hip can influence the technical excellence. This Technical Note summarizes our preferred hip arthroscopy technique by comparing the surgeon's hand position when operating on the left versus right hip. We also emphasize how the surgeon's hand laterality affects the instrument manipulation during the procedure and potentially the clinical outcomes.

The learning curve for hip arthroscopy: a systematic review.
PURPOSE The learning curve for hip arthroscopy is consistently characterized as "steep." The purpose of this systematic review was to (1) identify the various learning curves reported in the literature, (2) examine the evidence supporting these curves, and (3) determine whether this evidence supports an accepted number of cases needed to achieve proficiency. METHODS The electronic databases E...
متن کاملEffects of Right Sidelying Respiratory Left Adductor Pull Back Exercise on Improving Hip Biomechanics in Participants With a Tendency to Stand on Right Side
Objectives: A functional helpful exercise that tends to correct postural unevenness and endeavours to re-establish lumbo-pelvic mechanics would appear to be beneficial for patients with postural impairment. This study evaluated the effects of right sidelying respiratory left adductor pull back exercise on improving hip biomechanics in participants with a tendency to stand on right side. Method...
متن کاملAnti-inflammatory Prophylaxis Prevents Heterotopic Ossification in Contralateral Side Hip Arthroscopy: A Case Report
INTRODUCTION Heterotopic ossification (HO) after hip surgery is the formation of bone in non-skeletal tissue, usually between the muscle and the joint capsule. HO after hip surgery may be associated with clinical sequelae such as pain, impingement and decreased range of motion, compromising surgical outcomes. CASE REPORT A 20-year-old basketball player presented with a 2-year duration of the ...
متن کاملArthroscopic Repair of Hip Labrum With Suture Anchors
The acetabular labrum and the transverse acetabular ligament form a continuous ring of tissue on the periphery of the acetabulum that provides a seal for the hip joint and increases the surface area to spread load distribution during weight-bearing. When a labral tear is suspected, the treatment algorithm always begins with conservative management, including physical therapy and nonsteroidal an...
متن کاملReturn to sport after hip arthroscopy: aggregate recommendations from high-volume hip arthroscopy centers.
Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique often performed in athletes who want an expeditious return to sport. To the authors' knowledge, no studies in the literature provide a time frame or criteria for return to sport after hip arthroscopy. The purpose of this study was to develop an aggregate recommendation for return to sport after hip arthroscopy based on data assimilated ...
