Abstract
Arthroscopy of the peripheral compartment has contributed to a better understanding of the functional anatomy and pathologic conditions of the hip joint. The development of new concepts such as femoroacetabular impingement has led to a tremendous improvement of its technique, which has opened a field of new therapeutic options. This report presents established and latest techniques for hip arthroscopy without traction of the peripheral compartment of the hip. Detailed steps for patients positioning, portal placement, and a diagnostic round trip are included.
