Abstract
Objective: Evaluate the outcomes of hip arthroscopy as a treatment for greater throcanter pain syndrome after conservative treatment failed. Material and methods: Prospective study with 15 patients under - going hip arthroscopy for greater trochanter pain syndrome. Modified Harris Hip Score scale was used for clini - cal assessment. Results: The mean age of patients was 53.2 years. Gluteus medium tears was detected in 73.3%. The average follow-up was 16.3 months. The mean modified Harris Hip score increased from 55.4 points preop to 83.8 points postoperative. Discusion: Hip arthroscopy resulted in improvement in hip functional outcome in patients with greater trochanter pain syndrome after conservative treatment failed. Further follow-up is essential to confirm the stability of the clinical outcome.
