Hip Arthroscopy for Mild Hip Dysplasia Study
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study is for people with mild hip dysplasia and a labral tear. Doctors will use a camera (arthroscopy) to look inside the hip and fix the problem, aiming to ease pain and improve function.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with borderline hip dysplasia, which means your hip socket is slightly shallow.
- You also have a labral tear (damage to the cartilage ring in your hip joint).
- You have not had any previous hip surgery on the same hip.
- You do not have severe hip arthritis (advanced joint wear and tear).

This study compares hip arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgery) with non-surgical treatments (like physical therapy) for people with borderline hip dysplasia. It aims to find out which approach works better for reducing pain and improving function.
This study looks at babies under 3 months old with certain ultrasound findings of an underdeveloped hip (“hip dysplasia”). It compares outcomes between simply watching the hip and using a brace (when recommended).
This study uses MRI scans before and after hip socket surgery to measure how the surgery changes the shape and size of the hip joint. It helps doctors understand which surgical technique works best for children with hip dysplasia (a condition where the hip socket doesn't fully cover the thighbone).
This study tests whether adding gentle manual therapy to the usual Pavlik harness care helps babies with hip dysplasia (a hip joint that did not form correctly) improve faster. It is for infants already using a Pavlik harness.
This trial looks at whether doing hip arthroscopy at the same time as periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) is safe and helpful for people with hip dysplasia. It may matter for improving hip joint outcomes while your surgeon corrects bone alignment.
This trial is a worldwide registry that collects information from children with hip dysplasia or who are at higher risk. It helps researchers understand who is affected and how hip evaluations are done, which can improve future care.
