High Survival Rate and Satisfaction at more than 11 years of follow-up of Hip Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: Impact of Preoperative Functional Scores, Osteoarthritis, and Chondrolabral Junction Damage on Failure Long-Term 72.6% Survival in Hip Arthroscopy.

The purpose of the study was to investigate the survival and durability of clinical improvements following hip arthoscopy (HA) for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) at a minimum of 10-year follow-up. The primary objective was to determine the long-term survival, defined as: lack of conversion to total hip replacement (THR) or subsequent hip joint preservation surgery (HJPS). The secondary objective was to determine which preoperative factors were predictive of failure. Data from patients who underwent HA for FAIS between March 2003 and May 2012 were collected and retrospectively reviewed. Patients who underwent evaluation at a minimum 10-year follow-up, assessed according to hip outcome score - activities of daily living (HOS-ADL) and sport-specific subscale (HOS-SSS), and non-arthritic hip score (NAHS) were included. Satisfaction ratings were collected. Statistical analysis assessed within-group differences and survival. 95 patients with an average follow-up of 11.8 years were included. Mean age was 39.5 ± 11.0 years. Overall THR conversion rate was 24.2%, with a mean time of 3.4 ± 3.2 years. 3.2% required HJPS revision at a mean 3.2 ± 3 years. Survivorship was 72.6% at ten years. 28 patients (73.6% and 75.6%) achieved the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) for HOS-ADL and HOS-SSS, while 33 (84.6%) for NAHS. Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) was achieved by 42 (61.7%), 43 (65.1%) and 44 (64.7%) patients respectively. Comparative analysis between patients who preserved their hip and those who underwent HJPS revision or THR highlighted that Tönnis ≥ 2, chondrolabral junction damage, and lower preoperative scores are associated with failure. HA for FAIS demonstrated durable results, with an accepatable THR conversion rate and sustained clinical benefits. 91.3% of the patients who preserved their hip were satisfied. Tönnis 2, MRA signs of chondrolabral junction damage and lower preoperative functional status are strongly associated with failure.
