Arthroscopic management of chondromatosis of the hip joint. 1988

T Witwity, and R D Uhlmann, and J Fischer

In selected cases, we present the arthroscopic surgery of the hip joint as an alternative to the conventional arthrotomy. It is distinguished by less surgery, minimal invasive exploration, and slight traumatization. Also, it comprises a short morbidity, and thereby, the method reduces the costs. If the operation succeeds, the patient and the surgeon are both enthusiastic.
