Single Table Concomitant Post-Less Hip Arthroscopy Combined with Periacetabular Osteotomy for Hip Dysplasia.

It has been well established that both arthroscopic and open hip preservation techniques can result in improved patient outcomes and interrupt the natural history of hip disease. Traditionally, hip arthroscopy has been used to address central and peripheral compartment disease consisting of labral tears, impingement morphology and cartilage pathology. The periacetabular osteotomy has been the most used treatment for hip instability caused by inadequate acetabular coverage of the femoral head or dysplasia. With failures of periacetabular osteotomy linked to postoperative impingement and the high incidence of intra-articular pathology in the dysplastic hip, there has been a great interest in combing hip arthroscopy with the periacetabular osteotomy. Here, we describe a technique for a single table, single drape, postless combined hip arthroscopy, and periacetabular osteotomy.
