Summary
This study compared two surgeries—hip arthroscopy (a less invasive scope procedure) and total hip replacement—for people aged 40 to 60 with early hip osteoarthritis. The goal was to see which surgery better improves pain, daily function, and quality of life. The trial was stopped early, so results are limited.
