Semiarthroscopic Synovectomy of the Hip
Overview
Affiliations
A new surgical procedure, semiarthroscopic synovectomy of the hip is described. The operation enables a radical synovectomy to be performed without the risk of necrosis of the femoral head from temporary luxation. The early results have been encouraging and the method appears to offer a low-risk alternative to conventional radical synovectomy.
