Longitudinal Evaluation of Hip Cartilage Degeneration: FAI

"Patients will be treated surgically (hip arthroscopy) or nonoperatively (physical therapy) and pain medications as needed. For surgical patients, cartilage samples and surgeon operative reports will be a source of research. For both cohorts, MRIs, radiographs and patient reported outcome surveys will be additional research sources.~All tests and imaging are part of standard of care except follow up MRI, which will be performed in a random group from within the cohort and paid for through this grant."
