Abstract
Hip arthroscopy is a technically demanding procedure that is currently characterized by a "steep" learning curve. Therefore, achieving an advanced technical level is often challenging, especially for the amateur hip arthroscopist. Hand laterality when training in hip arthroscopy is an aspect that has been omitted. In addition, the technical differences regarding the handling of the surgical instruments when performing hip arthroscopy on the left versus right hip can influence the technical excellence. This Technical Note summarizes our preferred hip arthroscopy technique by comparing the surgeon's hand position when operating on the left versus right hip. We also emphasize how the surgeon's hand laterality affects the instrument manipulation during the procedure and potentially the clinical outcomes.
