Conservative treatment versus hip arthroscopy in patients with femoroacetabular impingement
This multilevel meta-analysis of 21 RCTs with a total of 1,799 FAI patients showed a statistically significant higher HHS ≤ 12 months post-intervention and iHOT ≤ 24 months post-intervention, favouring the HAS subgroup compared to the conservative treatment subgroup, without reaching minimal clinically important differences (MCIDs).
