Video Summary

In this video, the speaker discusses the importance of femoral correction in Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) surgery and its impact on patient outcomes. The speaker refers to various studies comparing surgery with and without femoral osteoplasty. They also present their own study, conducted over a minimum of 15 years follow-up, comparing outcomes of patients who underwent hip arthroscopy with and without femoral osteoplasty. The results showed that the group with femoral osteoplasty had significantly lower rates of reoperation and total hip arthroplasty (THA), as well as higher patient-reported outcomes. The speaker emphasizes the long-term effects of femoral correction and calls for further studies to fully understand the impact on the natural history of FAI.
