A postless hip arthroscopy is a minimally invasive technique that eliminates the need for a post by using a surgical table to create the pull traction on the leg required for surgery. 

The procedure has less risk for nerve damage, decreased chance for muscle shutdown and more thorough visualization of the hip joint during surgery, according to Dr. Lycans. 

The Three Gables Surgery Center is an ASC managed by St. Mary’s Medical Center, a member of Mountain Health Network. 

 

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
