New treatment option for Hip Dysplasia
Official title Periacetabular Osteotomy With and Without Arthroscopic Management of Central Compartment Pathology
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03481010
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- At present, it is not clear whether performing a hip arthroscopy at the same time as a PAO improves patient outcomes after surgery compared to a PAO alone. This research project will randomize patients to receive either a PAO alone, or a PAO and a hip arthroscopy at the same time.
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
