Debate Introduction: 26-Year-Old Female With Borderline Dysplasia (DDH) and No Significant Arthritic Change

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript discusses a case of a 26-year-old female ballet dancer with hip pain and limited range of motion. Despite failed physical therapy and a temporary injection relief, she still experiences discomfort. The patient exhibits impingement signs and is hypermobile. Imaging studies reveal anatomical variations and labral degeneration. The debate topic is whether an all arthroscopic approach should be pursued for treatment. Dr. Al Stubbs from Winston-Salem, North Carolina, advocates for this approach. This summary highlights the patient's history, examination findings, imaging results, and the proposed treatment debate on managing her hip condition.
