title: Hip arthroscopy.
abstract: The indications for performing arthroscopy of the hip are fewer than for the knee and shoulder. Yet, it is a very useful procedure when the occasion arises. The purpose of this article is to present a technique that is simple and safe. The lateral approach over the greater trochanter, not only meets these criteria, but it gives the surgeon enough maneuverability to completely visualize the joint and to perform surgery.
