Arthroscopic surgery of the hip, âhip scopeâ, is a minimally invasive procedure performed through tiny incisions, using a small, pencil-sized camera inside the joint to visualize the damaged structures. A variety of instruments repair torn tissue, remove bone spurs, re-shape abnormal bones and treat injured cartilage.
The hip joint is a ball-and-socket joint made up of the top of the thigh bone or femur (ball) and the acetabulum (socket) in the pelvis. The ends of the bone, as with all joints, are covered with a smooth, cushioning layer called articular cartilage. The articular cartilage is what allows the bones to glide smoothly.
