ABSTRACT
OBJECTIVE:
The purpose of this study was to evaluate return to sport (RTS) outcomes in tennis athletes following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). It was hypothesized that there would be a high rate of return to tennis after hip arthroscopy. STUDYDESIGN:
Level IV, Retrospective Analysis.SETTING:
Outpatient sports medicine clinic at a single institution.PARTICIPANTS:
A total of 28 patients (60.8% female; mean age, 36.2 ± 9.2 years; mean BMI, 22.8 ± 2.1 kg/m2) with self reported tennis activity prior to hip arthroscopy. MAIN OUTCOMEMEASURES:
A postoperative return to sport and minimum two-year patient reported outcomes.RESULTS:
There was a high rate of return to tennis, with 78% of patients eventually returning to tennis. An additional 9% of patients had the necessary hip function to return, but did not return due to lack of interest or resources. The patients returned to tennis at an average of 8.0 ± 3.3 months after surgery. The majority of athletes (66.7%) were able to continue competing at the same or higher levels following surgery.CONCLUSIONS:
Patients return to tennis 78% of the time at a mean of 8.0 ± 3.3 months following hip arthroscopy for FAIS.Palavras-chave
