Abstract The current published literature regarding the role of hip arthroscopy in the diagnosis and management of post-traumatic hip pain is still limited. Therefore, we conducted the present prospective study to determine the value of hip arthroscopy in the diagnosis and management of various causes of hip pain after traumatic conditions. The present study included a prospective cohort of 17 patients with symptomatic post-traumatic hip pain. It was conducted between July 2013 and May 2018. The mean age was 22 (19–29) years and the mean follow-up was 24 (r: 7–36) months. Prior to surgery, every eligible patient underwent assessment of functional status using the Modified Harris Hip Score, Oxford hip score (OHS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index (WOMAC) score. All patients underwent arthroscopic management for their diagnosed pathologies. The most commonly encountered diagnosis was labral tear (58.8%), followed by ligamentum teres tear (35.3%) and loose intra-articular fragments (29.4%). In addition, 52.9% of the patients had associated CAM lesion and 11.8% had associated Pincer lesion. The mHSS, OHS and WOMAC score showed significant improvement in the post-operative period (P < 0.001), all the 17 patients had 100% Patient Acceptable Symptomatic State; only one patient did not achieve minimal clinical importance difference. One case underwent labral debridement for failed labral repair (5.8%), another patient developed maralgia paraesthetica (5.8%). In conclusion, hip arthroscopy is a useful and effective minimally invasive procedure for the diagnosis and management of selected patients with post-traumatic hip pain. Moreover, hip arthroscopy was safe technique with no reported serious adverse events.

The role of hip arthroscopy in the management of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has been advancing rapidly. In this case report, we describe the use of hip arthroscopy to successfully treat a femoral neck osteochondroma that caused a symptomatic labral tear in a 37 year old woman. Hip arthroscopy offers several advantages to surgical dislocation of the hip in the management of intra articular pathology and FAI. Hip arthroscopy is minimally invasive without the significant trauma to hip musculature, is useful in treatment of labral tears generated by FAI, and can be used to resect small lesions on the femoral head.
