    Abstract:
    PURPOSE: To present a novel surgical concept for the cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) treatment and to assess and report the clinical outcomes. METHODS: We performed a retrospective study of a single-surgeon case series of six hips in five consecutive male patients with symptomatic cam-type FAI, treated with the mini-open anterior hip approach with a patient-specific template (PST)-guided deformity ablation between 2015 and 2018. We assessed the hip range of motion, iHOT-33, Tegner, and EQ-5D before surgery and after a minimum follow-up of 30 months. RESULTS: The average age was 37 ± 13.3 years, average BMI was 31.1 ± 3.3 kg/m2, and average pre-surgery Tönnis hip osteoarthritis (OA) grade was 1 ± 1. The average surgery duration was 71 ± eight minutes. The average estimated blood loss was 83 ± 26 ml. After a mean follow-up of 50 ± 12 months, we observed no OA progression with no change in Tönnis hip OA grades. Hip flexion and internal rotation significantly improved (p = 0.007; p = 0.048) from mean 98° ± 9° and 14° ± 11° to mean 113° ± 8° and 23° ± 8°, respectively. iHOT-33, Tegner, and EQ-5D improved significantly (p = < 0.001; p = 0.004; p = < 0.001) from mean 44.7 ± 12.2, 3 ± 1, and 0.513420 ± 0.101389 to mean 94 ± 2.7, 5 ± 1, and 1.000000 ± 0, respectively. One patient needed revision surgery for heterotopic ossification removal, with no sequelae at the last follow-up. CONCLUSION: Mini-open anterior hip approach with the PST-guided cam-type FAI deformity ablation presents an accurate and reproducible solution for cam-type FAI surgical treatment, with promising clinical outcomes. Using a PST in the cam-type FAI surgery may present a powerful additional tool in the existing open techniques armamentarium.
