Hip Arthroscopy

Minimally Invasive Solutions for Hip Pain and Mobility Issues

Hip arthroscopy is an advanced, minimally invasive surgical procedure used to diagnose and treat a range of hip joint conditions. Unlike open surgery, hip arthroscopy allows the surgeon to access the hip joint using small incisions, specialized instruments, and a tiny camera (arthroscope). Dr. Manjush Ramesh Halbhavi, an experienced Orthopaedic and Pediatric Orthopaedic Surgeon, offers hip arthroscopy to provide precise treatment, faster recovery, and minimal disruption to surrounding tissues.

When is Hip Arthroscopy Recommended?

Hip arthroscopy is considered when non-surgical treatments—such as rest, physiotherapy, medications, and activity modification—fail to relieve hip pain or improve function. It is particularly effective for:

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) — a condition where extra bone causes abnormal contact in the joint
Labral tears — injury to the cartilage rim that stabilizes the hip socket
Loose bodies — fragments of bone or cartilage inside the joint
Cartilage damage or early arthritis
Snapping hip syndrome — when tendons catch on bony structures
Hip joint infections (in select cases)
Childhood hip conditions with residual deformities or impingement

Benefits of Hip Arthroscopy

Smaller incisions and less soft tissue damage
Reduced post-operative pain
Shorter hospital stay (often same-day discharge)
Faster return to daily activities and sports
Lower risk of complications compared to open hip surgery

Conditions Treated with Hip Arthroscopy

Dr. Manjush performs hip arthroscopy for a variety of conditions, including:

Labral tear repair or debridement
Bone reshaping for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
Synovectomy (removal of inflamed joint lining)
Removal of loose bodies
Treatment of cartilage lesions
Release of tight tendons in snapping hip

Post-Operative Recovery

Most patients are discharged on the same day or after an overnight stay. Crutches or a walker may be used initially to protect the joint. Dr. Manjush will provide a tailored rehabilitation plan, including physiotherapy exercises to restore hip strength, flexibility, and range of motion. Return to full activity depends on the underlying condition and the extent of surgical repair but generally takes a few weeks to several months.
