Summary: | Purpose
Greater trochanteric pain syndrome (GTPS) is a term covering different conditions generating lateral hip pain. Recalcitrant cases may require surgery but there are only a few studies evaluating endoscopic treatment. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of endoscopically treated GTPS at minimum two years postoperatively using patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs), and to assess the complication rate associated with endoscopic surgery.
Methods
A total of 33 patients, mean age 43.2 years, 88% women, with a mean symptom duration of 3.5 years, were included in the study. A total of 36 operated hips were included. Pre- and at minimum two years postoperatively the patients completed questionnaires consisting of the International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-12) and the Hip Sports Activity scale (HSAS), the Visual analogue scale for overall hip function (VAS-OHF), the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS), the EuroQoL-5 Dimension Questionnaire (EQ-5D) and the EQ-VAS. Complications were assessed using the Clavien-Dindo classification.
Results
Median follow-up time was 24.5 months postoperatively. Statistically significant improvements were seen for the following PROMs (
