Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video transcript discusses a study conducted on elite female athletes who underwent hip arthroscopy for the treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). The purpose of the study was to compare the outcomes of female athletes with a matched cohort of male athletes. The study found that female athletes showed comparable improvements in patient-reported outcome scores and rate of return to sport compared to male athletes. Despite differences in intraoperative findings and surgical procedures, both groups had similar rates of achieving psychometric thresholds and continuation of sport. However, the study has limitations including being retrospective and conducted at a single institution. Overall, the results suggest favorable outcomes for female athletes undergoing hip arthroscopy. The speaker in the video is Dr. Andrew Jiménez, an assistant professor at Yale University.
