Survivorship Rate and Clinical Outcomes 10 Years After Arthroscopic Correction of Symptomatic Femoroacetabular Impingement

Survivorship Rate and Clinical Outcomes 10 Years After Arthroscopic Correction of Symptomatic Femoroacetabular Impingement

In this study, 119 cases undergoing hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) were followed-up 10 years post-surgery (range 10-12 years). Long-term patient-reported outcomes, satisfaction and incidence of subsequent surgeries are reported. The results demonstrate that arthroscopic intervention is a safe and viable treatment option for patients with symptomatic FAI, and patients can expect long-term improvements and high satisfaction. Results indicated a high satisfaction (90%) and survivorship rate (91.6%), with excellent clinical outcome, 10 years after the initial procedure.
