Longitudinal Assessment of Clinical Outcomes After Arthroscopic Treatment for Hip Synovial Chondromatosis and the Effect of Residual Loose Bodies: Minimum 4-Year and 8-Year Follow-up.

Arthroscopic treatment for hip synovial chondromatosis achieved satisfactory long-term clinical outcomes with strong survival. Most patients maintained or improved their overall functional status between midterm and long-term follow-up. Furthermore, patients with residual loose bodies had less favorable clinical outcomes, although the survival rate was comparable.
