Centring on the idea of high performance hips in the first half, Mr Chana will be delving into what they are and outlining investigations for accurate diagnosis, such as imaging. We will be asking whether it is possible to have hip performance natural hip preservation – can your patients have their cake and eat it too? We will also be outlining what patients who need a hip replacement can expect, and asking should active people, including athletes, be worried about such surgeries? Mr Chana will then be discussing possible intervention strategies. Using the latest evidence-based concepts, we will be considering what recovery and rehab look like for both hip preservation and replacement surgery, as well as weighing up conservative management. After surgical treatment, we will be looking at what activity levels are achievable, depending on the individual.

Unusual pathologies of the hip may not be seen in clinics often but can be crucial not to miss. Spot the signs by delving into the aetiologies, symptoms and examinations of less common diseases. We will be covering tumours, benign and malignant, in adolescent to elderly patients, and other rare pathologies, such as Morel-Lavallee Lesions and Paget’s disease. Understand how to reach a diagnosis of exclusion, which is vital to safe treatments of patients with such hip pathologies.
