Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary objective of this study is to compare the clinical outcome using the Harris Hip Score (HHS) after isolated ECF with ECF and additionally performed ablation of the FAI by arthroscopically assisted mini-open arthrotomy. The score will be collected once by mail as part of the study.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
- descriptive for the score WOMAC, Nonarthritic Hip Score (NAHS), UCLA Activity Score, International Hip Outcome Tool 33 (iHOT33) - The extent of the hip joint deformity based on existing radiographs
