Hip arthroscopy is currently effective for the treatment of loose bodies, labral tears, chondral injuries, AVN, synovial disease, ruptured ligamentum teres, impinging osteophytes, and unexplained mechanical symptoms. The set-up is typically supine or lateral, and traction is applied. The complications are rare but are associated with traction injuries, iatrogenic chondral injuries, and neurovascular injury due to aberrant portal placement. Transient neuropraxia of the groin (pudendal) or dorsum of the foot (peroneal) are most common as these are the points where the traction is applied. The Byrd is the first to describe 10 year follow-up of hip arthroscopy patients and only 2 complications were reported.
