Since 2000 arthroscopically-assisted surgery on hip joints has become more widely used. The technique is relatively demanding and should be used only after arthroscopic procedures on other large joints are mastered to perfection.
A thorough study on cadaverous specimens should be a prerequisite for adopting it as a routine method. The aim of this study was to evaluate indications for hip arthroscopy as, from the year 2006, this was gradually introduced and more widely used at our department.
