Challenging Resection Comes in Many Forms: Addressing Difficult Cam Morphology.

Femoroacetabular impingement with cam morphology that fails nonoperative management can be addressed with hip arthroscopy and cam resection. There exists a wide variation of cam morphology due to various etiologies that can make some cam lesions more challenging to address. A thorough preoperative evaluation and the utilization of a variety of intraoperative techniques can allow for adequate arthroscopic resection of these otherwise challenging cam lesions. In this technique video, we describe a systematic approach for the preoperative assessment of femoroacetabular impingement due to a cam lesion and consideration of different approaches for arthroscopic resection based on cam-specific morphology.
