Bilateral Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: A Case Report
Journal Title: Meandros Medical and Dental Journal - Year 2020, Vol 21, Issue 3
Abstract
Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is an abnormal contact of the acetabulum with the femur, particularly during flexion and hip rotation, caused by anatomical abnormalities in the femur head and acetabulum, and may result in labral and cartilage damage in the hips. According to the graphical features of the pelvis AP, three types of FAI were defined: cam, pincer and, mix type. Moreover, the mix is the most common type, where typically patients complain of pain in the hip and groin. With symptomatic treatment in the initial phase, the patient’s complaints are relieved. However, if the severity of the impingement progresses, the patient may be referred for surgery. Arthroscopic or open surgery corrects the deformity of the femur head and acetabulum.
