Arthroscopy for Management of Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome in the Military Health System: A 10-Year Epidemiological Overview of Cases with 2-year Follow-up.

CONCLUSION: Rates of arthroscopy have grown in the MHS over the last decade. Complication rates are similar to those reported in other populations and settings. Utilization of physical therapy was much more likely after surgery than prior to it. Opioid use was high prior to surgery and many individuals continued to receive opioid prescriptions beyond the initial perioperative period. PMID: 30941406 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
