    Properties of the boundary structure of a convex set in the hyperbolic space \(\mathbb{H}^n\) are given in the paper. The author first studies the curvature measures defined via the Steiner formula and prove that they are stable under Hausdorff convergence. From that, different consequences are derived, such as the existence of a Gauss-Codazzi equation for the boundary of a convex set in \(\mathbb{H}^3\). The regularity of the boundary points is treated in a second part of the paper. It is proved that a.e. point in the boundary of a convex set is normal, i.e., it can be approximated by a smooth surface. From that, the author shows that the local curvature can be defined at every normal point and that it coincides with the regular part of the local curvature measures.
