Specialized Toolkit Series: Arthroscopic Hip Treatments-Evaluation of the Failed Hip Scope

Video Transcription

Video Summary

The ANA toolkit discusses evaluating failed hip arthroscopy. Post-surgery rehabilitation should minimize inflammation and build endurance, with potential return to sport after 6 months. Failure occurs if pain or functional limitations persist despite recovery protocols and conservative treatments. Causes include incomplete diagnosis, complex conditions, residual issues, patient factors, or improper rehabilitation. Imaging and injections aid in identifying issues and guiding further treatment. A case study of a 41-year-old with failed hip arthroscopy highlights revision surgery due to degenerative labral tear and capsular problems. Preoperative patient selection and diagnostics are pivotal for successful outcomes.
