High Rate of Return to Cycling After Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is most commonly diagnosed in athletes who sustain repetitive flexion and rotational loading to their hip. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a patient's ability to return to cycling after hip arthroscopy for FAIS.

Hypothesis

There is a high rate of return to cycling after hip arthroscopy.

Study design

Retrospective analysis.

Level of evidence

Level 4.

Methods

Consecutive patients who had identified themselves as cyclists and had undergone hip arthroscopy for the treatment of FAIS were reviewed. Pre- and postoperative physical examinations, imaging, and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) scores, including the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Outcome Score Activities of Daily Living (HOS-AD
