Abstract

Diagnosis of hip synovial pathology is usually done by imaging. Plain radiographs, arthro-CT, and arthro-MRI are the best techniques. Main diagnoses are chondromatosis and pigmented villonodular synovitis. Despite the progresses of imaging techniques, hip arthroscopy remains sometimes useful for diagnosis. Hip arthroscopy is now the gold standard for the treatment of these diseases.
