Hip arthroscopy following contralateral total hip arthroplasty: a multicenter matched-pair study

The purpose of this study was to determine if patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for labral pathology with contralateral total hip arthroplasty (THA) have a difference in revision surgeries or patient-reported outcomes (PROs) when compared with those patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for labral pathology with a native contralateral hip. A retrospective review was performed for patients that were undergoing hip arthroscopy between 2008 and 2015. Patients were included in the study group if they met the following inclusion criteria: Tönnis Grade 0 or 1, hip labral pathology, previous contralateral THA, and greater than 2-year follow-up with completion of all PROs or conversion to a THA. Exclusion criteria included the previous surgical history on ipsilateral hip, peritrochanteric or deep gluteal space arthroscopy performed concomitantly, or dysplasia [Lateral Center Edge Angle (LCEA)
