The proportion of cases achieving the patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) was compared between groups using Chi squared analysis.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Forty-six dysplasia and 90 control cases were reported on. There was no statistical difference between groups for baseline metrics apart from the LCEA (p<0.001), Sharp angle (p<0.001) and Tonnis angle (p<0.001). By 10 years, 9% of dysplasia cases and 4% of control cases converted to THR. There was no statistical difference between groups for survival or revision rates. Both groups reported improvements in PROs and there was no difference between PRO scores at either timepoint. Excluding those undergoing THR, 84% and 83% of dysplasia and control cases respectively achieved PASS.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Hip arthroscopy for symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a successful treatment in cases where dysplasia is present. Low complication rates, comparable outcomes to those without lateral rim dysplasia, and a high survivorship rate of 91% at minimum 10-year follow up are observed. Increasing Tonnis angle preoperatively may increase the risk of THR conversion.</p><p><strong>Level of evidence: </strong>IV Retrospective Cohort Study.</p>","PeriodicalId":55459,"journal":{"name":"Arthroscopy-The Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":4.4,"publicationDate":"2024-08-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142115147","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
