Restoration of Hip Kinematics After Arthroscopy for Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: A 1-Year Evaluation of Gait and Stair Performance
Hip arthroscopy for FAIS improved hip flexion, abduction, and ER during dynamic tasks such as gait, stair ascent, and stair descent comparable with the contralateral extremity. Additionally, patients reported significant improvement in function and pain at 1 year postoperatively, but these improvements did not correlate with improvements in hip kinematics.
