Hip arthroscopy.
With adequate patient screening and attention to complications specific to the hip joint, hip arthroscopy can be performed safely and effectively. When used in appropriately selected patients, the reduced recovery and rehabilitation time is significant. In the past decade, the indications for hip arthroscopy have evolved to include a variety of pathologies, which has lead to a dramatic rise in its use.
