abstract = {Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is an increasingly recognized hip disorder; it has been thought to be a causative factor for the development of hip arthritis (1). Many recent studies have significantly improved our overall understanding of FAI, exploring concepts such as extra-articular impingement, the role of acetabular and femoral version, impingement induced instability, capsular management techniques, and the role for capsular and labral repair (2). Arthroscopic FAI correction has had an increasing role for the management of FAI. Many factors, for example, acute injury, microfracture, femoral and acetabular version, age, sex, etc. have been shown to have an impact on outcomes for hip arthroscopy. Previously, there was little data available that compare outcomes of FAI following hip arthroscopy on the basis of age and sex alone.},
