Hip Arthroscopy

High impact activities like sports can stress the hip joint. “When patients get problems with their hip labrum, it's usually a small morphological issue with their hip. The ball isn't totally round, and the labrum gets torn. That can happen in younger athletic patients, and they'll experience that pain in the groin clicking and catching,” said Orthopedic Surgeon Dr. Steven DeLuca. If an MRI shows a tear, orthopedic surgeons can treat it with a hip arthroscopy. “We go in with a camera into the hip joint and repair the labrum, so it stops causing pain and problems,” said Dr. DeLuca. “And then when we repair it, we also change the morphology of the ball in the socket. So, make it more round so that it eliminates that impingement or pinching on that labrum.” The surgery is typically completed in an outpatient office, so patients go home the same day. “It's a less invasive way to approach the hip rather than having to make big incisions with long recoveries. It's just 2 or 3 small incisions to get into the hip joint and access the labrum,” said Dr. DeLuca. They’ll spend a few weeks on crutches and use a brace. Physical therapy is extensive, but after a few months recovering, “The majority of the patients can return to the same level of athletics afterwards. And the younger the patient is, the more likely they are to get back to that degree of athletics. Most patients will experience significant reduction of symptoms and hopefully enough reduction that they can get back to doing things they like to do,” said Dr. DeLuca.
