Journal Article
Lucenti, L., Maffulli, N., Bardazzi, T., Saggini, R., Memminger, M., Simeone, F., & Migliorini, F. (in press). Return to Sport Following Arthroscopic Management of Femoroacetabular Impingement: A Systematic Review. Journal of Clinical Medicine, 13(17), https://doi.org/10.3390/jcm13175219

Background: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is common. The present systematic review updates the current evidence on return to sport (RTS) in patients who have undergone arthroscopic surgery for FAI in any of its variants (CAM, pincer, or both). M...
