First seen May 07, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study looks at whether injecting numbing medicine around the surgical cut (incision) can lower pain and the amount of pain medication needed after a specific hip surgery called periacetabular osteotomy (PAO) for hip dysplasia. About 120 people aged 13 to 50 will be split into three groups: one gets no numbing injection, one gets it after the incision is closed, and one gets it throughout the surgery. Researchers will track pain scores and painkiller use to find the best approach.
