In response to the recent study by Mygind\u2010Klavsen et al., we argue that conversion to total hip arthroplasty (THA), although clinically important, is a late and highly selective endpoint that does not capture the broader spectrum of unsuccessful hip preservation. Patients who remain symptomatic, fail to achieve clinically meaningful improvement, or undergo revision without THA are not represented by arthroplasty conversion alone. We further question whether conventional radiographic variables such as alpha angle, lateral joint\u2010space width, and T\u00f6nnis grade are sufficient to explain failure in a condition as structurally and biologically heterogeneous as femoroacetabular impingement syndrome. Recent evidence suggests that cartilage status, composite risk stratification, and technique\u2010related factors may be more informative for long\u2010term survivorship than conventional morphology alone. Finally, the long registry period analysed in the target article spans different technical eras, raising the possibility that treatment\u2010era effects were conflated with patient\u2010related risk. In our view, the study provides a useful registry\u2010based estimate of THA conversion after hip arthroscopy, but its findings should not be interpreted as establishing the dominant determinants of failure in contemporary hip\u2010preservation practice.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ksa.70440","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,13]],"date-time":"2026-05-13T09:15:01Z","timestamp":1778663701000},"page":"3038-3039","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["Beyond arthroplasty conversion: Rethinking failure after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"34","author":[{"given":"Xia","family":"Qu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Southwest Medical University Luzhou Sichuan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ming","family":"Yi","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Southwest Medical University Luzhou Sichuan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dujiang","family":"Yang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Southwest Medical University Luzhou Sichuan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-5599-4813","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Bo","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopedics, The Affiliated Traditional Chinese Medicine Hospital Southwest Medical University Luzhou Sichuan China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,13]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/03635465241265721"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/03635465251336380"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/ksa.70302"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.arthro.2024.11.080"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/03635465221147055"}],"container-title":["Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/esskajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ksa.70440","content-type":"application\/pdf","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/esskajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/full-xml\/10.1002\/ksa.70440","content-type":"application\/xml","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/esskajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1002\/ksa.70440","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,29]],"date-time":"2026-07-29T17:01:27Z","timestamp":1785344487000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/esskajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1002\/ksa.70440"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,13]]},"references-count":5,"journal-issue":{"issue":"8","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1002\/ksa.70440"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/ksa.70440","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0942-2056","1433-7347"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0942-2056","type":"print"},{"value":"1433-7347","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,13]]},"assertion":[{"value":"2026-04-03","order":0,"name":"received","label":"Received","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-04-22","order":2,"name":"accepted","label":"Accepted","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}},{"value":"2026-05-13","order":3,"name":"published","label":"Published","group":{"name":"publication_history","label":"Publication History"}}]}}
