Staged Bilateral Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome Index Surgery Patient Rep...

Patients experience significant clinical benefit in both hips after staged bilateral hip arthroscopy. Results from the initial hip arthroscopy at either 1- or 2- year follow-up can be used to predict outcomes on the contralateral side, however there is a higher degree of predictive value using 2-year results. Average correlations between 2-year PROs on the index and contralateral hips were moderate to strong, regardless of the time between surgeries.
