Bone marrow injection during hip arthroscopy for hip impingement
Treatments studied
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests whether injecting a concentrated sample of your own bone marrow during hip arthroscopy improves outcomes for people with hip impingement. The injection may help your hip heal better after surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are scheduled for hip arthroscopy (a minimally invasive surgery) to treat hip impingement.
- You have hip or groin pain with limited hip movement and a positive impingement test.
- Your X-ray shows a Cam-type impingement (an extra bone bump) and an MRI or MRA shows cartilage or labrum damage.
- You have not had prior hip surgery.
- You do not have significant hip arthritis (Tonnis grade II or higher) or congenital hip deformities.
- You are not having additional procedures like trochanteric bursectomy or gluteus medius repair.

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study compares two ways to treat a torn labrum in the hip: one group gets standard hip arthroscopy (keyhole surgery), and the other gets the same surgery plus an injection of your own bone marrow cells to help healing. It aims to see if adding the injection improves pain and function.
This trial looks at whether using BMAC (a substance made from a person’s own bone marrow) during hip arthroscopy helps people with labral tears caused by hip impingement. It aims to improve hip pain and function by combining the injection with the standard surgical repair.
This study tests whether adding platelet-rich plasma (a blood concentrate), platelet-poor plasma, or bone marrow concentrate during hip surgery helps people with a torn labrum recover better. If you need hip arthroscopy and haven't had prior hip surgery, you may be able to join.
This trial tests if adding a bone marrow injection to standard knee arthroscopy helps your knee heal better. It is for people with a torn meniscus or damaged cartilage who have healthy knee joints without arthritis.
This trial compares a “bone marrow aspirate concentrate” injection with a corticosteroid (steroid) injection to reduce pain from hip osteoarthritis. It aims to see which treatment works better over time for hip pain and function.
This trial tests a combination of a steroid and lubricant injection into the hip joint plus physical therapy to treat mild hip arthritis or related issues like a labral tear. It aims to see if this approach can reduce pain and improve function without surgery.
