Abstract
Arthroscopy of the hip is now recognised as a valuable diagnostic and therapeutic procedure [23]. It is still relatively new and remains largely in the hands of a few specialist centres, but orthopaedic surgeons are increasingly willing to provide it as part of their own service. This article outlines its background and details its clinical and technical application.
