Clinical Outcomes after Arthroscopic Treatment of Synovial Chondromatosis in the Hip.
Cartilage 2020 March 21
PURPOSE: Evaluate the clinical outcomes after arthroscopic treatment of synovial chondromatosis (SC) of the hip.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: We evaluated patients who underwent arthroscopic management for SC of the hip from November 2008 to March 2017. Radiographic evaluation was made before and after surgery. The modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS), Hip Disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (HOOS), visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and patient self-reported satisfaction were collected and analyzed before and after surgery. Complications and recurrence that occurred after surgery were recorded.
RESULTS: Forty-one patients (27 men and 14 women) were the study cohort. The mHHS improved from 67.0 to 83.7, HOOS-Symptoms improved from 78.8 to 93.3, HOOS-Pain improved from 80.9 to 93.6, HOOS-Activity Limitations-Daily Living improved from 84.5 to 95.1, HOOS-Sport improved from 50.3 to 80.6, and HOOS-Quality of Life improved from 62.2 to 86.7. VAS scores decreased from 3.9 to 1.1. All results demonstrated significant improvement ( P < 0.05). Thirty-three (80.5%) patients thought the outcome of surgery was "excellent," 7 (17.0%) thought it was "good," 1 (2.4%) thought it was "fair," and no one thought it was "poor". Two patients underwent revision surgery.
CONCLUSION: Hip arthroscopy for SC treatment of the hip showed good clinical results, good satisfaction from patients, and low recurrent prevalence.
