NEW YORK, April 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- A new study by surgeon-scientists at Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) found that 25% of patients with hip impingement who underwent modern arthroscopy for their condition experienced a delay in the natural progression of osteoarthritis. The retrospective study, published online on March 8, 2024, in The American Journal of Sports Medicine, is the first to link hip arthroscopy with a reduced risk of developing hip arthritis over the long term.

Key Points: 
  • Hip impingement occurs when the bones of the hip joint are not shaped properly, causing them to rub against one another.
  • Prior studies have shown that 85-90% of patients with hip impingement who undergo modern arthroscopy return to their usual activity level.
  • "By contrast, we studied the effect of modern arthroscopic methods by comparing the degree of arthritis in each patient's operative hip versus their nonoperative hip.
  • For ideal candidates, the evidence shows that hip arthroscopy may delay or prevent arthritis for one in four patients.
