ABSTRACT

Background: Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a suggested diagnosis for pain in the hip in the absence of other apparent causes. It is thought to be a cause of progressive arthrosis of the hip. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of radiographic data of FAI in the adult population without hip pathology over a period of six months. Material and methods: Analytical, observational, multicentric, ambispective and transverse study based on digital X-rays analysis. Measurements of the lateral center-edge angle of Wiberg, acetabular inclination, Tönnis angle and the neck shaft angle of the proximal femur were made; a pistol grip deformity of the femoral head, the triangular index and the shape of the coxofemoral joint were also evaluated. Results: From a total of 212 hips evaluated, 104 were in males and 108 in females, with an average age of 42.81 years; 21 had a pistol grip deformity and a positive triangular index for cam type. The pincer type was found in 12 hips. Discussion: In this multicentric study, the FAI cam type predominated in men on the right side; the pincer type predominated in women on the left side; this is similar to what has been reported in other populations. This study is limited by the wide variation in the femoral rotation; as an advantage, it was randomly carried out and provides some data on the prevalence of deformities of the hip, not previously registered.
