Brief Summary

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is increasingly recognized as a common hip condition affecting the adolescent and adult population with groin pain and disability 1-5. When nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, activity modification and injections fail as conservative treatment option fails, surgery addressing the underlying osseous pathoanatomy and associated labral and chondral lesions may be necessary. Several techniques have been described as treatment of this condition. The first technique termed surgical hip dislocation (SHD) allowed to describe the pathomechanism of FAI 1, 3, 5, 6 and to develop treatment strategies such as osteochondroplasty, acetabular rim resection and fixation of torn labrum. Other techniques also have been proposed and consist of less invasive techniques as the (mini-open) direct anterior approach 7-10 and ´the golden standard´; the hip arthroscopy 11-15. Good results have been reported for all techniques but faster rehabilitation and less morbidity have been published for hip arthroscopy (HA). The direct anterior approach also shows good results but a good randomized controlled trial to compare both techniques has not yet been performed. Outcome is meanly determined by adequate bony correction of cam and pincer deformities. Direct visualization during SHD offers the advantage that possibly a more appropriate correction of the underlying morphology can be done. This thereby decreases the likelihood of early hip osteoarthritis (OA). The purpose of the present study was to test the hypothesis that 1) the postoperative recovery and short term outcome after HA is superior compared to mini-open direct anterior approach and 2) the morphological corrections achieved by HA are equally sufficient when compared to the corrections achieved by the mini-open direct anterior technique.
