This notion does not apply to the value that hip arthroscopy provides in managing hip pathology in adolescents. Multiple studies have shown the efficacy of hip arthroscopy as a treatment modality in the adult population for a multitude of hip pathologies, particularly femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. The implementation of hip arthroscopy in the management of femoroacetabular impingement syndrome in the adolescent population is on the rise. More studies illustrating favorable outcomes following hip arthroscopy in adolescents will serve to reinforce its utility as a treatment option for this population. Early intervention and preservation of hip function are of critical importance in a youthful and active patient population. As a word of caution, acetabular retroversion predisposes these patients to an increased risk of revision surgery.<p>
