Assessing hip arthroscopy benefits during hip dysplasia surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the outcomes of patients undergoing periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for hip dysplasia, comparing those who also receive hip arthroscopy to those who do not. The research aims to determine if intraarticular assessment and treatment during PAO can lead to better pain relief and functional improvement. Patients with specific indications for intraarticular work, such as labral pathology or limited range of motion, will be included. The study will analyze the effectiveness of this combined approach versus PAO alone.

Why it matters

* Ability to receive a standard of care preoperative (magnetic resonance imaging) MRI arthrogram of the hip

Exclusion Criteria:
