Editorial Commentary: Bilateral Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: What We Know Now and Where Do We Go From Here?

Abstract

Patients with bilateral femoroacetabular impingement syndrome treated with either staged or simultaneous hip arthroscopy have similar postoperative outcomes compared with patients undergoing unilateral procedures. A longer duration between surgeries is associated with inferior outcomes; however, the reasons underlying this trend are unclear. Identifying prognostic variables that are associated with contralateral symptom onset and disease progression are important goals for future investigation.
