Hip Arthroscopy

Hip pain can make everyday movement difficult and often worsens over time. Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure used to diagnose and treat problems inside the hip joint, such as labral tears, cartilage damage, or impingement. Using small instruments and a camera, surgeons can repair damaged tissue and improve joint function. At Gateway Surgery, we provide timely access to hip arthroscopy to help restore mobility and support a smooth recovery.

What Our Patients Say

Frequently Asked Questions

Who is a good candidate for hip arthroscopy?
Hip arthroscopy may be recommended if you have hip pain, catching, clicking, instability, or limited movement caused by conditions such as femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), labral tears, bursitis, or cartilage damage. It is often considered when physiotherapy, medication, or activity modification have not provided enough relief. A consultation with a hip arthroscopy specialist will review your imaging and medical history to determine whether arthroscopic treatment is appropriate.

Hip arthroscopy, often called a hip scope, is commonly used to treat:

  • Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
  • Hip labral tears
  • Cartilage damage or joint surface injuries
  • Hip bursitis or inflammation
  • Hip instability
  • Snapping hip syndrome

Your surgeon will recommend the most appropriate treatment approach based on your diagnosis and activity goals.

Recovery depends on the procedure performed and the condition being treated. Many patients begin guided physiotherapy soon after surgery to restore movement and strength. Light activities may resume within several weeks, while full recovery and return to higher impact activity may take a few months. Your surgeon will provide a personalized recovery plan based on your procedure and health status.
Hip arthroscopy is generally considered safe, though all surgical procedures carry some risk. Possible risks may include bleeding, infection, swelling, temporary stiffness, nerve irritation, or reactions to anesthesia. In some cases, symptoms may persist or additional treatment may be required. Your surgeon will review potential risks with you and help determine the safest treatment option.

Yes. Gateway Surgery has partnered with iFinance (Medicard) to provide financing options for patients interested in private surgery. Financing allows patients to spread the cost of treatment over time.

 

Hip problems are typically diagnosed through a combination of medical history, physical examination, and imaging such as X-rays or MRI scans. These tests help identify issues such as labral tears, cartilage damage, or femoroacetabular impingement that may benefit from arthroscopic treatment.
Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive procedure performed using small instruments and a camera inserted through tiny incisions around the hip joint. The surgeon can view the inside of the joint, repair damaged tissue, remove bone causing impingement, or treat labral tears while preserving surrounding structures. This approach often allows for smaller incisions and a faster recovery compared to traditional open surgery.
