Male Gender and Competitive Athlete Status Are Associated With Better Outcomes Following Hip Arthroscopy In Patients With Global Acetabular Retroversion.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate outcomes of hip arthroscopy in patients with global acetabular retroversion and to identify correlations between sex, radiographic measurements, athlete status, and return to play with patient-reported outcomes (PROs).

Methods

Retrospective study of patients with global acetabular retroversion who underwent arthroscopic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) surgery was performed. Global acetabular retroversion was defined by 3 criteria: the crossover sign, ischial spine sign, and posterior wall sign on an anteroposterior (AP) pelvic radiograph. Radiographs were used to measure lateral center edge angle, alpha angle, and anterior and posterior wall indices. Femoral version was measured with 3-dimensional computed tomography. Demographics included age, gender,
