Popis: Hip arthroscopy techniques have evolved to treat a wide range of extra-articular pathologies. Subspine impingement commonly occurs in femoroacetabular impingement, particularly in athletes with a high range of motion, patients with low degrees of femoral version, and those with large subspine deformities. A reliable technique that preserves the hip capsule would be helpful for hip arthroscopy surgeons. This note details our technique using pericapsular windows proximal to the interportal capsulotomy to access and decompress a subspine deformity in the setting of hip femoroacetabular impingement.
