The indications for hip arthroscopy over the last decade have increased rapidly, driven by technical and technological advances aimed at hip joint preservation. This article reviews the current indications and supporting evidence for hip arthroscopy, explores some newer techniques/technologies and discusses the future directions in this rapidly evolving and expanding field.
