Hip-femoral acetabular impingement.
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has become a valuable technology for the diagnosis and treatment of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). This article reviews the basic pathophysiology of FAI, as well as the techniques and indications for MRI and magnetic resonance arthrography. Normal MRI anatomy of the hip and pathologic MRI anatomy associated with FAI are also discussed. Several case examples...
متن کاملEvaluation of the acetabular labrum by MR arthrography.
Since January 1993 we have carried out MR arthrography on 23 patients with clinical symptoms and signs of abnormality of the acetabular labrum. Most of the patients were young adults. Such symptoms are known precursors of osteoarthritis, and therefore early and accurate evaluation is required. We assessed the value of MR arthrography of the hip as a minimally-invasive diagnostic technique, in a...

متن کاملHip Anatomy in Femoral Acetabular Impingement
The acetabular cartilage complex is interposed between Figure 1: Hip Growth the ilium, ischium, and the pubis. This complex is composed of epiphyseal growth-plate cartilage adjacent to these bones and articular cartilage around the acetabular cavity. Interstitial growth of the triradiate cartilage leads to expansion and enlargement of the acetabulum (25). Development of the acetabulum and femor...
متن کاملFixation in slipped capital femoral epiphysis avoiding femoral-acetabular impingement
BACKGROUND The appropriate treatment in mild slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE) should not only prevent further slipping of the epiphysis but also address potential femoroacetabular impingement by restoring the anatomy of the proximal femur. The aim of this study was to quantify length of the remodeling phase mediated by growth of the femoral neck, after treatment of SCFE with a screw des...
