Arthroscopic cam resection reduces femoroacetabular contact pressure
This biomechanical study evaluated a new hip-specific device to intraoperatively measure the CP in arthroscopic surgery. It showed a significant decrease in the CP after arthroscopic cam resection with the joint in different positions. At 80° of flexion with 20° of internal rotation, a typical position to detect hip impingement, the CP was reduced to 26% after arthroscopic cam resection. The intraoperative measurement of CP provides surgeons with feedback to evaluate the effectiveness of the osteoplasty.
