Keywords:
Clinical, Radiologic Improvements, Arthroscopic Correction of FAIAbstract
Background: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) has emerged as a major etiologic factor in hip pain and damage amongyoung and active individuals, leading to progressive labral injury, chondral degeneration, and potential early osteoarthritis. With increasing recognition of its pathomechanics, arthroscopic management has evolved into the preferred surgicalapproach for symptomatic cases unresponsive to conservative therapy
