Robot‐Assisted Hip Arthroscopy for the Treatment of Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome Combined With Labral Injury: Surgical Technique

Xinyue Zhang, Zhe Xue, Ceyong Sun, Jin Zhang

Abstract

Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is one of the common causes of hip pain, limited range of motion, and labral injury. Without timely intervention, it may progress to hip osteoarthritis. In this study, a robot‐assisted hip arthroscopy technique was adopted, which involves preoperative bony structure image reconstruction, intraoperative real‐time navigation and positioning, and robotic arm‐assisted anchor placement. This technique enables hip labral repair and osteochondroplasty, restores normal acetabular‐femoral anatomy, and effectively addresses the shortcomings of traditional hip arthroscopy, such as insufficient precision in anchor positioning, angle, and depth, as well as excessive or inadequate osteophyte resection. It provides a more accurate and minimally invasive surgical option for patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome combined with labral injury.
