Overview

Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive orthopedic procedure in which a small camera called an arthroscope is inserted into the hip joint through tiny incisions. This allows surgeons to diagnose and treat conditions such as labral tears, cartilage damage, and hip impingement with minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.

Understanding The Procedure

Symptoms That May Require Hip Arthroscopy

⦾ Hip pain
⦾ Joint stiffness
⦾ Clicking sensation in the hip
⦾ Reduced range of motion

Recovery & Outlook

Rehabilitation exercises strengthen surrounding muscles and improve joint stability. Early treatment helps prevent further joint damage. Long-term results are usually very good.

Risks

⦾ Infection
⦾ Temporary swelling
⦾ Joint stiffness
