"Clinical Outcomes Analysis of Conservative and Surgical Treatment
of Patients With Clinical Indications of Prearthritic Intra-articular Hip Disorders"
▲American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation 2012
目的:
To describe outcomes of the conservative treatment of patients who had the
clinical presentation of a prearthritic, intra-articular hip disorder, including
acetabular labral tears, developmental hip dysplasia, and femoroacetabular
impingement.
結果:
Fifty-eight patients (9 men and 49 women) with a mean age of 35 ± 11 years
(range, 18-50 years) enrolled in the study. Fifty-two subjects completed the study.
Twenty-three subjects (44%) reported satisfaction with conservative care.
Twenty-nine subjects (56%) chose to have surgery. Both groups demonstrated
equally significant improvement.
結論:
These data suggest that a trial of conservative management for persons with
prearthritic, intra-articular hip disorders should be considered before engaging
in surgical intervention.
