Arthroscopic Hip Labral Repair Using Needle Arthroscopic Visualization.

Abstract

Hip arthroscopy has become increasingly popular in recent years and continues to grow as techniques and understanding of hip arthroscopy evolve. Needle hip arthroscopy is emerging as a technique that can offer potential advantages compared with a traditional arthroscope. These benefits include a higher degree field of view, lower profile design for easier maneuverability, decreased arthroscopic fluid, and potentially decreased postoperative pain and swelling. We herein present and describe a technique of needle hip arthroscopy as a viable option in the treatment of hip pathology.
