The film describes a technique with full access to the femoral head and acetabulum without the risk of avascular necrosis. The described procedure permits a thorough understanding of the hip joint’s pathological mechanism in early stages, such as impingement. It preserves the hip joint and allows for further procedures like cartilage transplantation in the future.
