Intra-articular hip injuries are becoming increasingly recognized as a significant cause of pain and decreased performance in the athlete. The introduction of arthroscopic techniques for the treatment of athletic hip injuries, including capsular laxity, has allowed many athletes to return to their high levels of performance.
