PG - 566-576 LID - S0749-8063(20)30891-4 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.arthro.2020.10.035 [doi] AB - PURPOSE: To evaluate the impact of hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) on both the physical and mental components of the 36-Item Short Form (SF-36) and assess how changes in health status compare with improvements in physical function and ability to continue to play (CTP) 2 years after surgery. METHOD: Data collected prospectively from male athletes undergoing primary arthroscopic correction of FAI between November 2008 and October 2016 were analyzed. Physical (PCS) and mental (MCS) component scores of the SF-36 were assessed preoperatively and 2 years postoperatively. The minimal clinical important difference (MCID) was calculated using an anchor-based percentage of possible improvement technique, and the proportion of athletes achieving MCID was established. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify predictors of achieving MCID. CTP was assessed at 2-year follow-up. RESULTS: 486 cases were included, age 25.9 +/- 5.6 years. Median PCS improved from baseline 69.4 (51.9 to 85.0) to 91.9 (81.9 to 97.5) at 2 years (P < .001). Median MCS remained unchanged-preoperative, 88 (76 to 92); postoperative, 88 (80 to 96)-although the difference in the distribution of scores was statistically significant (P < .001). Calculated MCID was 60.1% (PCS) and 58.1% (MCS). Mean improvement was significantly higher for PCS compared with MCS (17.4 versus 3.7, P < .001) The proportion of cases achieving MCID was 56.9% and 28.7% for PCS and MCS, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (P < .001). Lower Tonnis grade (odds ratio [OR] 0.601, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.377 to 0.958; P = .032) and symptom duration <2 years (OR 0.624, 95% CI 0.406 to 0.960; P = .032) were predictive of achieving PCS MCID. Higher preoperative scores decreased the odds of achieving MCID (OR 0.965, 95% CI 0.955 to 0.975; P < .001; OR 0.972, 95% CI 0.958 to 0.986; P < .001 for PCS and MCS, respectively). 77.3% continued to play their main preinjury sport. Where CTP was not achieved, a significantly higher proportion of cases failed to meet MCID for the MCS compared with PCS (85% versus 60%, P < .001). CONCLUSION: Arthroscopic management of sports-related FAI results in excellent overall clinical outcome and high levels of satisfaction and CTP at 2 years. Chronic hip injury has a significant negative effect on the physical and mental well-being of athletes; corrective surgery may restore physical function but is more limited in its ability to improve mental health status in this athletic cohort.
