Summary
This study looks at whether closing the hip joint capsule during keyhole surgery helps people with hip impingement feel better and function better. About 200 adults having hip arthroscopy will be randomly assigned to have the capsule closed or left open. Researchers will track pain, hip function, and quality of life over time to see which approach works best.
