Cam Decompression Utilizing the Stryker Hip-Check Software Platform

Status unconfirmed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Femoroacetabular Impingement

In brief

Accurate femoroplasty has been shown to be critical in achieving success following treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (Matsuda, Schnieder, and Sehgal 2014; Mansor et al. 2018; Larson et al. 2014). Nearly 75% of cases undergoing revision hip arthroscopy do so due to residual femoroacetabular impingement (Ricciardi et al. 2014). Femoroplasty remains one of the most challenging and time-consuming procedures in hip arthroscopy and methods to improve accuracy and optimize time management are essential. The HipCheck system is a navigational tool based on intraoperative fluoroscopy that aims at improving accuracy and efficiency of femoroplasty. The objective of this study is to two-fold. (1) To prospectively compare surgical and (2) radiographic outcomes of patients undergoing femoroplasty with guidance of Stryker's HipCheck system to patients undergoing femoroplasty with conventional fluoroscopic methods.

You may qualify if…

• Candidates for this study must meet ALL of the following criteria:

You may not qualify if…

• Candidates will be excluded from the study if ANY of the following apply:
• Unwilling to participate
• History of prior hip conditions such as slipped capital femoral epiphysis, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, idiopathic avascular necrosis, hip joint trauma, and prior hip surgeries

• Marked osteoarthritis (Tönnis grade 2 or higher)
• Subject is considered a part of a vulnerable population
• Pregnancy in order to avoid: x-rays and the contraindication of lying supine after 20 weeks secondary to pressure on the abdominal aorta
