Conditions
Summary
Microinstability of the hip joint is an important cause of hip pain and reduced hip function in young and active individuals. Hip microinstability is due to extraphysiologic hip motion and could be secondary to acetabular dysplasia, connective tissue disorder, macrotrauma, microtrauma, iatrogenic- and idiopathic causes. Treatment for hip microinstability is initiated with non-surgical treatment consisting of physiotherapy aimed mainly at stability. If non-surgical treatment fails, surgery with arthroscopic plication of the hip joint capsule is the preferred method. This study evaluates non-surgical and arthroscopic treatment for hip microinstability regarding hip function and adverse events.
