3 patients with borderline hips - conservative or recon?
The distinction between conservative surgery (PAO or arthroscopy) and non-conservative treatments has evolved significantly with the development of modern decision-making algorithms. Nicolas Bonin, Frédéric Laude and Kristoff Corten discuss the therapeutic indications for these « borderline » patients.
- Right hip (groin) + sacro iliac pain in a 41-year-old female who had sacro iliac arthrodesis 3 years ago.
- A 43-year-old female with right femoro acetabular dysplasia and pudendal pain.
- A 47-year-old female with bilateral congenital dysplasia and chronic hip pain, more intense on the right side.
