Background: The hip joint is frequently affected in axial spondyloarthritis (SpA) of adults with destructive effects in untreated patients. About 35% of axial SpA patients had either unilateral or bilateral hip arthritis. Destruction is more common with early-onset, active disease, or enthesitis. Objectives: The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of hip denervation (HD) and intra-articular hydration (IAH) on pain, function score, hip mobility scores in a cohort of axial SpA patients with grade 3 and 4 hip BASRI scores.
