UT Southwestern Medical Center’s orthopaedic specialists deliver comprehensive diagnostics, treatment, and rehabilitation services to patients with hip conditions – from fractures and sports injuries to hip dysplasia and femoroacetabular impingement.
Comprehensive Hip Services
The hip is the body’s largest ball-and- socket joint. While the hips are normally very stable, factors such as overuse, falls, inflammatory diseases, and congenital conditions can cause painful and debilitating problems.
The orthopaedic specialists at UT Southwestern offer expert surgical and nonsurgical treatments for a wide range of hip injuries and disorders. When surgery is needed, we first seek hip preservation. If that’s not possible, we are also experts at hip reconstruction surgery.
Hip conditions we treat include:
- Abductor muscle tear
- Acetabular dysplasia
- Arthritis
- Avascular necrosis (AVN)
- Bursitis
- Cartilage injury
- Congenital hip conditions
- Dislocations
- Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI)
- Fractures

- Hip impingement
- Labral tears
- Legg-Calve-Perthes disease
