Specialized Toolkit Series: Arthroscopic Hip Treatments-Preoperative Planning: Injections

Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this ANA toolkit series, Thomas Byrd discusses indications for hip arthroscopy, focusing on pain and dysfunction, often secondary to conditions like femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and dysplasia. Byrd emphasizes understanding the etiology to determine appropriate treatment—arthroscopic or more invasive procedures like periacetabular osteotomy (PAO). He highlights the importance of comprehensive imaging to assess acetabular architecture and acknowledges that older populations may have different considerations for arthroscopy. Additionally, Byrd touches on arthroscopy's role in managing arthritis, septic hip, and conditions like synovial chondromatosis, stressing nuanced decision-making in treatment planning.
