| All patients in the study underwent diagnostic arthroscopy the day after ultrasonography. |
| The surgeon uses a special hip arthroscopy cannula with cannulated obturators to establish the portals. |
| In a previous study we have shown that local anesthesia can be used as the standard anesthetic for outpatient knee arthroscopy. |
| Behind them was a screen showing mostly medical videos of operations, barium meals, gastroscopies, angiograms, arthroscopy, etc. |
| Before starting the arthroscopy, the surgeon tests the cannula sites with a needle to see if the areas are numb or if additional local anesthetic is needed. |
| The grafts were harvested and delivered by arthroscopy in 6 cases and arthrotomy in 15 cases. |
