ARTHROSCOPY IN THE DIAGNOSIS AND TREATMENT OF HIP JOINT PATHOLOGY

Objective. To estimate the possibilities and results of arthroscopy in different hip joint pathologies in young patients.
Methods. The results of 32 hip joint arthroscopy in cases of “cam” and “pincer” types of femoroacetabular impingement, chondromatosis and synovitis of the hip joint, osteoid osteoma of the acetabulum, osteonecrosis of the femoral head were analyzed. In 70% of cases, surgery was performed in adult patients aged 25 to 44 years. Hip arthroscopy was conducted in the patient’s supine position under general anesthesia through 3 ports: anterolateral, anterior, proximal anterolateral. 30° and 70° telescopes, 180 mm bone drills and aggressive cutters were used.
Results. A positive clinical effect due to the relief of pain and increase range of motion in the hip joint was obtained by arthroscopic treatment of femoroacetabular impingement. In one case the progression of coxarthrosis was observed, which required the total hip replacement in terms of 1.5 years after arthroscopy. In two cases the heterotopic soft tissue ossification in the projection of m. Iliopsoas was noted. Resection of the osteoid osteoma of the acetabulum under arthroscopic control is an effective less traumatic treatment for subchondral localization. Arthroscopic joint debridement in cases of coxarthrosis and osteonecrosis of the femoral head in some cases improves the clinical outcome of treatment by reducing the effusion in the joint and capsular tension. Intraosseous osteoscopy of the femoral head allowed visualizing the site of necrosis and monitoring the process of intraosseous osteoperforation.
Conclusions. The primary analysis of the results of hip arthroscopy showed its high efficiency as a minimally invasive method of diagnosis and treatment in a number of pathological conditions. The development of this direction of arthroscopy is possible only with the availability of specialized equipment and the improvement of surgical skills.
