Introduction to Hip Arthroscopy

Welcome to Your Hip Arthroscopy Guide

This guide is designed to help you understand and prepare for your upcoming hip arthroscopy with Dr. Mufaddal M. Gombera at Texas Orthopedic Hospital.

What is Hip Arthroscopy?

Hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that allows Dr. Gombera to view the inside of your hip joint without making a large incision. Using small instruments and a camera, he can diagnose and treat various hip conditions.

Common Reasons for Hip Arthroscopy

• Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI)
• Acetabular Labral Tears
• Hip Dysplasia (in some cases)
• Removal of loose bodies
• Treatment of cartilage damage

Dr. Gombera will discuss your specific condition and why hip arthroscopy is recommended for you during your consultation.
