Reducing groin injury during hip scope surgery
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests a new way to position patients during hip keyhole surgery to reduce injury to the groin area from pulling. If you are having hip arthroscopy for a condition called femoroacetabular impingement, this trial might help make your recovery smoother.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 15 and 60 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with femoroacetabular impingement (a hip condition) and are scheduled for hip keyhole surgery (arthroscopy).
- You understand and can sign a consent form.
- You have not had previous hip surgery or a major hip injury, and you do not have certain bone or hip diseases.
- You do not have numbness, pain, or skin issues in your groin or leg area, or any major health problems like serious organ disease, infection, or uncontrolled diabetes.

This study looks at how common hip and groin injuries are in competitive athletes, and tests a non-surgical treatment approach for those with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), a hip condition that can cause pain during sport. It aims to find better ways to manage this condition and help you stay active.
This study follows people before and after hip arthroscopy to treat femoroacetabular impingement (a condition where the hip bones pinch together). It measures strength, mobility, and daily function to see how recovery progresses over 6 months.
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.
This trial tests a computer-assisted navigation system that helps doctors place screws more accurately during surgery for a broken hip (femoral neck fracture). The goal is to improve surgical precision and outcomes, which may help you heal better after your surgery.
This study tests whether rotating the leg during hip arthroscopy improves outcomes for people with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), a condition where extra bone on the hip causes pain and limited movement. It aims to see if this rotation technique reduces pain and improves function better than standard surgery.
This trial looks at how well hip-preserving surgery works for people who need hip surgery. It may help your care team understand what outcomes to expect after this type of operation.
