What this study is

At present, it is not clear whether performing a hip arthroscopy at the same time as a PAO improves patient outcomes after surgery compared to a PAO alone.

This research project will randomize patients to receive either a PAO alone, or a PAO and a hip arthroscopy at the same time.

What's being tested

  • PAO with hip arthroscopy

    Intervention · PROCEDURE

    Participants who are randomized to the Scope-PAO group will receive central compartment hip arthroscopy in addition to the PAO.

  • PAO without hip arthroscopy

    Intervention · PROCEDURE

    Participants who are randomized to the "PAO-only" group will receive a Bernese Periacetabular Osteotomy (PAO) for treatment of hip dysplasia.
