A systematic review of case studies looking at the results of surgical treatment for femoroacetabular impingement showed good results for most patients, with the exception of those with preoperative radiographs showing osteoarthritis or Outerbridge grade III or grade IV cartilage damage noted intraoperatively. Both Byrd and Jones and Philippon and associates have shown good surgical results for this condition among professional athletes. Likewise, Fabricant and associates demonstrated good surgical results among adolescent patients with an average age of 17.6 years.
