Research Review: The Hip

  The hip. It’s an area in orthopedics that has seen exponential growth in research over the last several decades. I don’t recall ever talking about hip impingement during my fellowship training 20 years ago. Yet, CAM and pincer impingement as well as labral tears in the hip are something on the differential for every patient I see with hip and groin pain. But as Thanksgiving has  passed, I’m thankful for modern medicine as my wife recently had her hip replaced. Congenital hip dysplasia was the catalyst for the need for a hip replacement at a younger age, so I’ve had the hip on my mind a little more than usual. And that means it’s time for another research review episode…this time focusing on the hip.      Connect with The Host!
