Hip arthroscopy is much better than traditional hip surgery in many ways. Hip arthroscopy is a surgical procedure to correct the problems of the hip using a small camera inserted inside the joint to visualize the affected part. Incisions or cuts will be made in order to insert the camera inside and other small instruments. The main advantages of hip arthroscopy are faster recovery and smaller incisions.

  • Loose bodies
  • Labral tears
  • Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
