What is Hip Arthroscopy ?
It is a modification of conventional hip surgery. The procedure is same as a hip arthroplasty but the approach and technique differs. Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive variation. In this procedure, the doctors can visualize the hip joint either having to made huge incisions and dissection. The hip joint, femoral head, pelvic bone and the joint space is visualized using an athroscopic camera that will sent into the joint space through small incisions. It is done to treat the inflamed, necrotic or fractured hip joints and regain proper anatomical function with the help of prostheses.
