1 ABSTRACT Benefits of the Acetabular Microfracture Technique in Arthroscopic Treatment of Chondral Defects in Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome - Two-year(s)? Results of a Multicenter Prospective Randomized Study. Purpose of the study Two-year clinical results of a multicenter prospective randomized study in patients with arthroscopically treated Femoroacetabular Impingement syndrome and concurrently performed microfracture for grade IV chondral lesions of the acetabulum. Material and methods The study evaluated a group of 55 patients of the originally enrolled 92 patients with the underlying diagnosis of FAI syndrome with intraoperatively confirmed grade IV acetabular chondropathy of up to 4 cm2 in size, who had undergone a comprehensive hip arthroscopy (correction of structural cam-type and/or pincer-type deformity, labral refixation or partial labral resection etc.) performed by two experienced surgeons. The patients were randomized intraoperatively using a closed envelope method into two groups. In group 1 (31 patients), microfractures for chondral defects was performed, while in group 2 the patients underwent a defect debridement procedure only. The studied group included a total of 7 professional and 48 recreational athletes (33 men and 22 women), with the mean age of 34.4 in group 1 and 31.1 in...
