subchondral insufficiency fracture of the femoral head (siffh) is characterized by acute onset hip pain without overt trauma. it appears as a low intensity band with bone marrow edema on t1-weighted mri. the most common course of treatment is protected weight bearing for a period of several weeks. total hip arthroplasty (tha) has been commonly used if the patient does not respond to the initial...

    Background: Hip osteoarthritis (OA) is a major cause of pain and disability that results in considerable social and medical costs. Mechanics such as posture, alignment and orientation of the hips and the spinal column and the relationship between these factors have been implicated in the development of both hip and spine pathologies. This study aims to test the hypothesis if pelvic incidenc...
