Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
We aim to evaluate the importance of arthroscopy prior to the osteotomy procedure. This is to supply the surgeon with additional valuable pre-operative data which will establish a better treatment strategy. <br>the validated scoring clinical tools of the WOMAC hip score, Mahorn Hip Outcome Tool (MHOT) and the Non-arthritic hip score will provide functional quantitative data. Total assessment of clinical signs and symptoms will also be analysed. This will allow for a greater proportion of qualitative analysis, combined with the quantitative data collected via the validated questionnaires.[Retrospective data- over 2001 to 2008 <br><br>8 months will be the time for data collection and data analysis];We will then evaluate patient outcomes following these hip arthroscopy and peri-acetabular osteotomy (PAO)[Retrospective data- over 2001 to 2008 <br><br>8 months will be the time for data collection and data analysis]
