Arthroscopic surgery has demonstrated significant efficacy in treating FAI syndrome, with robust evidence from randomized controlled trials and systematic reviews supporting its use. Despite arthroscopic surgery's success, complications and reoperations are not uncommon. The incidence ranges from 1% to 31% and 4% to 13%, respectively. Adjunctive biologic treatments, such as bone marrow aspirate concentrates and platelet-rich plasma, have shown promise in chondral lesion management.
