Background: Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) can cause hip pain and chondrolabral damage that may be managed non-operatively or surgically. Squatting motions require large degrees of hip flexion and underpin many daily and sporting tasks but may cause hip impingement and provoke pain. Differential effects of physiotherapist-led care and arthroscopy on biomechanics during squatting have not been examined previously. This study explored differences in 12-month changes in kinematics and moments during squatting between patients with FAIS treated with a physiotherapist-led intervention (Personalised Hip Therapy, PHT) and arthroscopy. Methods: A subsample (n = 36) of participants with FAIS enrolled in a multi-centre, pragmatic, two-arm superiority randomised controlled trial underwent three-dimensional motion analysis during squatting at baseline and 12-months following random allocation to PHT (n = 17) or arthroscopy (n = 19). Changes in time-series and peak trunk, pelvis, and hip biomechanics, and squat velocity and maximum depth were explored between treatment groups. Results: No significant differences in 12-month changes were detected between PHT and arthroscopy groups. Compared to baseline, the arthroscopy group squatted slower at follow-up (descent: mean difference -0.04 mâs-1 (95%CI [-0.09 to 0.01]); ascent: -0.05 mâs-1 [-0.11 to 0.01]%). No differences in squat depth were detected between or within groups. After adjusting for speed, trunk flexion was greater in both treatment groups at follow-up compared to baseline (descent: PHT 7.50° [-14.02 to -0.98]%; ascent: PHT 7.29° [-14.69 to 0.12]%, arthroscopy 16.32° [-32.95 to 0.30]%). Compared to baseline, both treatment groups exhibited reduced anterior pelvic tilt (descent: PHT 8.30° [0.21-16.39]%, arthroscopy -10.95° [-5.54 to 16.34]%; ascent: PHT -7.98° [-0.38 to 16.35]%, arthroscopy -10.82° [3.82-17.81]%), hip flexion (descent: PHT -11.86° [1.67-22.05]%, arthroscopy -16.78° [8.55-22.01]%; ascent: PHT -12.86° [1.30-24.42]%, arthroscopy -16.53° [6.72-26.35]%), and knee flexion (descent: PHT -6.62° [0.56- 12.67]%; ascent: PHT -8.24° [2.38-14.10]%, arthroscopy -8.00° [-0.02 to 16.03]%). Compared to baseline, the PHT group exhibited more plantarflexion during squat ascent at follow-up (-3.58° [-0.12 to 7.29]%). Compared to baseline, both groups exhibited lower external hip flexion moments at follow-up (descent: PHT -0.55 Nâm/BWâHT[%] [0.05-1.05]%, arthroscopy -0.84 Nâm/BWâHT[%] [0.06-1.61]%; ascent: PHT -0.464 Nâm/BWâHT[%] [-0.002 to 0.93]%, arthroscopy -0.90 Nâm/BWâHT[%] [0.13-1.67]%). Conclusion: Exploratory data suggest at 12-months follow-up, neither PHT or hip arthroscopy are superior at eliciting changes in trunk, pelvis, or lower-limb biomechanics. Both treatments may induce changes in kinematics and moments, however the implications of these changes are unknown.

BACKGROUND: Spinopelvic parameters, including pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS), and pelvic incidence, have been developed to characterize the relationship between lumbar spine and hip motion, but a paucity of literature is available characterizing differences in spinopelvic parameters among patients with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) versus patients without FAIS, as well as the effect of these parameters on outcomes of arthroscopic treatment of FAIS. PURPOSE: To (1) identify differences in spinopelvic parameters between patients with FAIS versus controls without FAIS; (2) identify associations between spinopelvic parameters and preoperative patient-reported outcomes (PROs); and (3) identify differences in PROs between patients with stiff spines (standing-sitting ΔSS ≤10°) versus those without. STUDY DESIGN: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. METHODS: The study enrolled patients ≥18 years of age who underwent primary hip arthroscopy for treatment of FAIS with cam, pincer, or mixed (cam and pincer) morphology. Participants underwent preoperative standing-sitting imaging with a low-dose 3-dimensional radiography system and were matched on age and body mass index (BMI) to controls without FAIS who also underwent EOS imaging. Spinopelvic parameters measured on EOS films were compared between the FAIS and control groups. Patients with FAIS completed the modified Harris Hip Score (mHHS) and Non-Arthritic Hip Score (NAHS) before surgery and at 1-year follow-up. Outcome scores were compared between patients with stiff spines versus those without. Associations between spinopelvic parameters and baseline outcome scores were assessed with Pearson correlations. Continuous variables were compared with Student t test and/or Mann-Whitney U test, and categorical variables were compared with Fisher exact test. RESULTS: A total of 50 patients with FAIS (26 men; 24 women; mean age, 36.1 ± 10.7 years; mean BMI, 25.6 ± 4.2) were matched to 30 controls without FAIS (13 men; 17 women; mean age, 36.6 ± 9.5 years; mean BMI, 26.7 ± 3.6). Age, sex, and BMI were not significantly different between the FAIS and control groups (P > .05). Standing PT was not significantly different between stiff and non-stiff cohorts (P = .73), but sitting PT in the FAIS group was more than double that of the control group (36.5° vs 15.0°; P < .001). Incidence of stiff spine was significantly higher in the FAIS group (62.0% vs 3.3%; P < .001). Among FAIS patients, those with stiff spines had a significantly higher prevalence of cam impingement, whereas those with non-stiff spines had a higher prevalence of mixed impingement (P = .04). No significant differences were seen in preoperative mHHS or NAHS scores or pre- to postoperative improvement in scores between FAIS patients with stiff spines versus those without (P > .05), but a greater sitting SS was found to be positively correlated with a higher baseline mHHS (r = 0.36; P = .02). CONCLUSION: Patients with FAIS were more likely to have a stiff spine (standing-sitting ΔSS ≤10°) compared with control participants without FAIS. FAIS patients with stiff spines were more likely to have isolated cam morphology than patient without stiff spines. Although sitting SS was positively correlated with baseline mHHS, no significant differences were seen in 1-year postoperative outcomes between FAIS patients with versus without stiff spine.

BACKGROUND: Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS) is a hip joint motion-related clinical disorder with a triad of symptoms, clinical signs, and imaging findings. However, scientific evidence is still unclear regarding the best treatment for FAIS. OBJECTIVES: To assess the value of a physical therapy evaluation in predicting the progression of functional status over the subsequent years in patients with FAIS who are candidates for hip arthroscopy surgery. METHODS: In this case-series study, patients with FAIS, candidates for hip arthroscopy surgery, underwent a standard physical therapy evaluation. Baseline data were collected between 2013 and 2019. In 2020/2021, the patients' functional status was assessed through the International Hip Outcome Tool (iHOT-33). Functional status progression was calculated as the difference between the follow-up and baseline iHOT-33 scores. A multivariate forward stepwise regression analysis was conducted to explore the relationship between baseline characteristics and the functional status progression. RESULTS: From 353 patients who completed the baseline assessment, 145 completed the iHOT-33 follow-up. The mean (±SD) follow-up time was 58.7 (27.2) months (minimum 12 and maximum 103 months). The iHOT-33 scores increased 20.7 (21.8) points on average, ranging from -39.8 to 76.9 points. Among the 15 potential predictive factors assessed in this study, only baseline iHOT-33 score (ß -0.44; -0.061, -0.27), femoral version (ß 9.03; 1.36, 16.71), and body mass index (ß -0.99; -1.98, -0.01) had the ability to predict the functional status progression. CONCLUSION: Patients with a lower baseline iHOT-33 score, lower body mass index, and normal femoral version were more likely to increase their functional status after a minimum of one year of follow-up.

Altered shape of the proximal femur (cam morphology) or acetabulum (pincer morphology) is indicative of femoroacetabular impingement, which can result in hip pain and osteoarthritis of the hip. As mechanical load during growth affects the resulting bone shape, there is strong evidence in males that cam morphology develops during skeletal growth while physes are open, rather than as an adaptation after growth plates are closed (skeletal maturity). This adaptation is particularly evident in athletes who participate at elite levels prior to skeletal maturity. The research providing this evidence, however, has primarily focused on male athletes. Despite the lack of inclusion in the research, females consistently comprise two thirds of the clinical and surgical populations with structural hip pain or pathology. Knowledge gained from male-dominated cohorts may not appropriately transfer to female athletes, especially at the hip. This perspectives article briefly reviews differences between females and males in femoral and acetabular structure, hormones, timing of puberty/maturation, hypermobility, activity level and movement control-factors which affect hip structure development and loading. Without female-focused research, the application of research findings from male athletes to female athletes may lead to ineffective or even inappropriate recommendations and treatments. Thus, there is a critical need for investment in research to promote life-long hip health for females.

BACKGROUND: Trendelenburg gait describes contralateral pelvic drop during single leg stance (SLS) with occasional lateral trunk lean compensation over the stance limb. However, quantitative research on 'uncompensated Trendelenburg' gait (pelvic drop independent of lateral trunk lean) remains sparse among populations that commonly utilize this gait pattern, such as adolescent hip pathology patients. RESEARCH QUESTION: How prevalent is uncompensated Trendelenburg among various adolescent hip pathologies and how is it related to hip load, hip abduction strength, and self-reported hip pain? METHODS: Gait, strength, and pain data were collected among 152 pre-operative patients clinically diagnosed with acetabular hip dysplasia, femoroacetabular impingement, Legg-Calvé-Perthes, or slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). Patients with ≥ 5.4° of dynamic pelvic drop in SLS were divided into a 'pelvic drop' group and screened to exclude those with excessive ipsilateral trunk lean. They were then compared to the 'stable pelvis' patients using a Mann-Whitney test. RESULTS: Dysplasia patients represented the highest proportion of the pelvic drop group (46%). The pelvic drop group showed a significant increase in self-reported hip pain (p = 0.011), maximum hip abductor moment (p = 0.002), and peak coronal power absorption at the affected hip during SLS loading response, (p < 0.001) while showing no difference in abduction strength (p = 0.381). SIGNIFICANCE: Uncompensated Trendelenburg gait may lead to increased loading of the affected hip in adolescent hip pathology patients. Disadvantageous hip biomechanics can create increased abductor muscle demand among these pathological populations, with dysplasia patients showing the highest prevalence. Maximal abduction strength did not correlate with pelvic drop. Future work should aim to identify and quantify causal factors. Increased coronal hip power absorption during weight acceptance warrants clinical attention, as there may be a detrimental, over-reliance on passive hip structures to support load among a population that that is already predisposed to hip osteoarthritis.

BACKGROUND: Hip pain due to femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is thought to adversely impact sexual satisfaction because of exacerbation of symptoms with hip ROM. However, the effect of FAI on sexual satisfaction and improvement after surgery to treat FAI is largely absent from published studies, despite patients' apparent interest in it as registered by the frequent appearance of these topics on online anonymous discussion platforms. In addition, details regarding its impact on the decision to pursue surgery and the success of hip arthroscopy in alleviating FAI-related sexual dysfunction based on the specific role assumed during intercourse (penetrative versus receptive) remains unknown. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: Given that sexual intercourse involves different amounts of hip ROM depending on whether patients assume the penetrative or receptive role, this study evaluated the effect of FAI and hip arthroscopy on sexual activity based on role. Compared with patients who participate in the penetrative role during sexual intercourse, do patients who participate in the receptive role (1) experience greater difficulty with sexual function because of FAI symptoms, (2) take longer to return to sexual intercourse after hip arthroscopy, and (3) experience greater improvements in reported sexual function after hip arthroscopy for FAI? METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of patients undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAI. Between January 2017 and December 2021, 293 patients were treated with hip arthroscopy for FAI and enrolled in our longitudinally maintained database. Among all patients treated surgically, 184 patients were determined to be potentially eligible for study inclusion based on a minimum follow-up of 6 months postoperatively. The 6-month timepoint was chosen based on published data suggesting that at this timepoint, nearly 100% of patients resumed sexual intercourse with minimal pain after hip arthroscopy. Of the potentially eligible patients, 33% (61 patients) could not be contacted by telephone to obtain verbal consent for participation and 9% (17 patients) declined participation, leaving 106 eligible patients. Electronic questionnaires were sent to all eligible patients and were returned by 58% (61 patients). Forty-two percent of eligible patients (45) did not respond to the questionnaire and were therefore excluded from the analysis. Two percent (2) completed most survey questions but did not specify their role during intercourse and were therefore excluded. The mean age of included patients was 34 ± 9 years, and 56% were women The mean follow-up time was 2 ± 1 years. In total, 63% of included patients reported participating in the receptive role during sexual intercourse (49% receptive only and 14% both receptive and penetrative). Hip symptoms during sexual intercourse preoperatively and postoperatively were evaluated using a questionnaire created by our team to answer our study questions, drawing from one of the only published studies on the matter and combining the questionnaire with sexual position-specific questions garnered from arthroplasty research. Patients who reported participating in the receptive role during intercourse (either exclusively or in addition to the penetrative role) were compared with those who participated exclusively in the penetrative role. There were no specific postoperative recommendations in terms of the timing of return to sexual intercourse, other than to resume when comfortable. RESULTS: Overall, 61% of patients (36 of 59) reported that hip pain somewhat or greatly interfered with sexual intercourse preoperatively. Patients who participated in receptive intercourse were more likely to experience preoperative hip pain that interfered with intercourse than patients who participated exclusively in penetrative intercourse (odds ratio 5 [95% confidence interval 2 to 15]; p < 0.001). Postoperatively, there was no difference in time until return to sexual activity between those in the penetrative group (median 6 weeks [range 2 to 14 weeks]) and those in the receptive group (median 6 weeks [range 4 to 14 weeks]; p = 0.28). Postoperatively, a greater number of patients participating in the penetrative role reported no or very little pain, compared with patients participating in the receptive role (67% [14 of 21] versus 49% [17 of 35]). However, with regard to preoperative to postoperative improvement, patients who participated in the receptive role had greater pain with positions involving more hip flexion and abduction and experienced a greater improvement than their penetrative counterparts in these positions postoperatively. Despite this improvement, however, 33% of patients (7 of 21) participating in the penetrative role and 51% of patients (18 of 35) participating in the receptive role continued to report either some or a great amount of pain at final follow-up. CONCLUSION: Hip pain secondary to FAI interferes with sexual relations, particularly for partners who participate in the receptive role. Postoperatively, both patients participating in receptive and penetrative intercourse resumed sexual intercourse at a median of 6 weeks. After hip arthroscopy, the greatest improvement in pain was seen in receptive partners during sexual positions that involved more hip flexion and abduction. Despite this improvement, most patients, regardless of sexual role assumed, reported some degree of residual pain. Patients planning to undergo arthroscopic surgery for FAI, particularly those who participate in receptive intercourse, should be appropriately counseled about reasonable postoperative expectations based on our findings. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level III, therapeutic study.

BACKGROUND: Ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) is understood to be a pain generator in the deep gluteal space. Femoral position is known to influence the ischiofemoral space (IFS), but there has been no study examining the effect of sagittal pelvic tilt on the IFS. The purpose of this study was to determine whether changes in pelvic tilt in the sagittal plane lead to changes in the dimensions of the IFS. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Five fresh frozen cadavers (10 hips) were used for this anatomic study. The specimens were skeletonized and placed in the prone position with the pelvis fixed to a custom-built hinged table. A digital inclinometer was used to tilt the pelvis -10°, 0°, and 10° simulating posterior, neutral, and anterior pelvic tilt, respectively. Digital calipers were used to measure the dimensions of the IFS in all three positions of sagittal pelvic tilt. RESULTS: Changes in pelvic tilt resulted in significant changes in the dimensions of the IFS. Mean IFS dimensions measured 29.3±9.7 mm, 37.2±9.0 mm, and 24.3±9.2 mm in the neutral, anterior, and posterior pelvic tilt positions, respectively (P<.0001). CONCLUSION: Changes in sagittal pelvic tilt influence the dimensions of the IFS, with posterior pelvic tilt noted to significantly decrease the IFS when compared with neutral and anterior pelvic tilt. These findings suggest that further evaluation of sagittal spinopelvic balance in the etiology of symptomatic IFI may be warranted. [Orthopedics. 2024;47(3):167-171.].

OBJECTIVES: Nordic ski athletes are at increased risk of developing hip pain and dysfunction secondary to femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), but it is unclear whether hip symptomatology differs between ski jumping (SJ) and Nordic combined (NC) athletes. The purpose of this study was to compare patient-reported hip pain and dysfunction between elite Nordic ski athletes participating in SJ versus NC. METHODS: A cross-sectional study was conducted involving SJ and NC athletes who competed at the international and U.S. national levels during the 2021-2022 season. Subjects were excluded if they had hip surgery within two years prior to enrollment. Subjects were asked to undergo diagnostic workups for FAIS, including physical examination and plain radiographic imaging. Subjects were asked to complete a survey that collected information on athletic and training history and to complete the hip disability and osteoarthritis outcome score (HOOS). Demographics, athletic/training history, and HOOS sub-scores were compared between the SJ and NC groups using the Student's t-test, Wilcoxon rank-sum test, or Fisher's exact test, as appropriate. p-values < 0.05 were considered significant. RESULTS: Twenty-four athletes (13 SJ, 11 NC) were included in the study. There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, BMI, or age of menarche between the two groups (all p â> â0.05). There were also no statistically significant differences in the number of prior sports participated in, total hours of participation in prior sports, or total hours of training in Nordic specialization (all p â> â0.05). Among the 18 athletes who underwent physical examination (9 SJ, 9 NC), there were no statistically significant inter-group differences in hip range of motion or incidence of positive impingement tests (all p â> â0.05). Among the 19 athletes who underwent imaging (9 SJ, 10 NC), there were no statistically significant inter-group differences in the incidence of cam or pincer morphology in at least one hip (all p â> â0.05). SJ athletes had statistically significantly worse HOOS sub-scores for hip symptoms and stiffness, hip function in sports/recreational activities, and hip-related quality of life compared to NC athletes (all p â< â0.05). CONCLUSION: Elite SJ athletes have worse self-reported hip function compared to elite NC athletes, despite comparable demographics, athletic history, and duration of ski training. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: IV.

Cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is a painful, structural hip disorder. Herein, we investigated hip joint mechanics through in vivo, dynamic measurement of the bone-to-bone distance between the femoral head and acetabulum in patients with cam FAI syndrome and morphologically screened controls. We hypothesized that individuals with cam FAI syndrome would have larger changes in bone-to-bone distance compared to the control group, which we would interpret as altered joint mechanics as signified by greater movement of the femoral head as it articulates within the acetabulum. Seven patients with cam FAI syndrome and 11 asymptomatic individuals with typical morphology underwent dual fluoroscopy imaging during level and inclined walking (upward slope). The change in bone-to-bone distance between femoral and acetabular bone surfaces was evaluated for five anatomical regions of the acetabulum at each timepoint of gait. Linear regression analysis of the bone-to-bone distance considered two within-subject factors (activity and region) and one between-subjects factor (group). Across activities, the change in minimum bone-to-bone distance was 1.38-2.54 mm for the cam FAI group and 1.16-1.84 mm for controls. In all regions except the anterior-superior region, the change in bone-to-bone distance was larger in the cam group than the control group (p ≤ 0.024). An effect of activity was detected only in the posterior-superior region where larger changes were noted during level walking than incline walking. Statement of clinical significance: Patients with cam FAI syndrome exhibit altered hip joint mechanics during the low-demand activity of walking; these alterations could affect load transmission, and contribute to pain, tissue damage, and osteoarthritis.

There is a well-established relationship between mental distress, mental health disorders, and the perception of pain and physical dysfunction. While determining the root cause is often challenging, increasing levels of mental distress are associated with increasingly disruptive manifestation of physical symptoms and vice versa. In femoroacetabular impingement syndrome, patients with preoperative mental distress exhibit more impactful levels of symptoms. Patients do show symptomatic improvement with appropriate surgical management, even in the presence of mental distress. Patients and surgeons should recognize both the physical and mental contributions to pain perception when developing a treatment plan for musculoskeletal pathologies and incorporate this as part of the postoperative rehabilitation process.

OBJECTIVE: The purpose of the study was to synthesize studies of movement patterns and their association with hip pain, function/activity, and morphology in individuals with femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). METHODS: PubMed, SPORTDiscus, CINAHL, Embase, and Scopus databases were searched using predefined terms. Two authors independently reviewed abstracts and full texts. Studies were included if they enrolled individuals with FAIS, reported kinematic or kinetic data during movement tasks, and tested the data's associations with hip pain, function/activity, or morphology. Exclusion criteria were studies that did not evaluate associations between movement patters and pain, function/activity, or hip morphology. Additionally, studies with hip conditions other than FAIS, case reports, conference proceedings, review articles, and non-English studies were excluded. Descriptive consolidation and qualitative synthesis were performed for the included studies. RESULTS: Of the 1155 potential studies, 5 studies met all eligibility criteria. Movement patterns were evaluated during walking (n = 4) and squatting (n = 1). Studies reported multiple associations between variables of interest. Statistically significant associations were identified between movement patterns and hip pain (n = 2), function/activity (n = 2), or morphology (n = 3). Significant associations included increased hip flexion moment impulse during walking was associated with worse pain, increased hip flexion moment during walking was associated with worse hip function, decreased hip external rotation during gait and hip internal rotation during squat were associated with larger cam deformity, and increased hip flexion moment impulse during walking was also associated with more severe acetabular cartilage abnormalities. CONCLUSIONS: Very little current evidence has evaluated the associations between altered movement patterns and hip pain, function/activity, or morphology in individuals with FAIS, and only low-intensity tasks have been tested. These studies found some preliminary associations between altered hip biomechanics and higher hip pain, worse hip function, and specific measures of hip morphology in individuals with FAIS. IMPACT: This review is a first step in gaining a better understanding of movement patterns and their associations with hip pain, function/activity, and morphology, which could ultimately assist with the development of movement retraining interventions and potentially improve rehabilitation outcomes for those with FAIS.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the sagittal hip-pelvic kinematics in symptomatic cam-type femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) patients in the process of sitting down and compare their difference between patients with sitting pain complaint and those without. METHODS: Twenty-nine symptomatic cam-type FAI patients were recruited from our clinic between May 2018 and October 2018. Patients were categorized into two groups depending on whether they complain of pain in prolonged sitting or not. The pelvic-femoral measurements were assessed with a set of lateral pelvic radiography in sitting and standing respectively. Pelvic incidence (PI), sacral slope (SS), and proximal femoral shaft angle (PFSA) were measured on lateral pelvic radiography, and then pelvic tilting, apparent hip flexion, true hip flexion, and the pelvic-femoral ratio were calculated to investigate the kinematic change from standing to sitting position. Demographic measurements, hip morphology measurements, functional measurements, visual analog scale (VAS), and pelvic-femoral measurements were compared between the two groups. RESULTS: Thirteen cases without sitting pain complaint and 16 cases with sitting pain complaint were stratified to Group N and Group P respectively. No was significant difference in age, body mass index (BMI), and gender between the two groups. Hip morphology measurements (α angle and lateral center-edge angle) and functional measurements (iHOT-12) showed no significant difference between the two groups. However, the mean VAS of pain while sitting was 0.5 ± 0.4 and 1.6 ± 0.6 in Group N and Group P respectively (P = 0.005). Patients with sitting pain complaint have increased pelvic PI compared to those without (50.1° ± 6.5° and 44.2° ± 7.6°, P = 0. 042). The changes in SS (pelvic tilting) from standing to sitting in Group N was significantly larger than that in Group P (21.8° ± 7.0° and 15.1° ± 6.5°, P = 0.012). Although no significant difference in apparent hip flexion and true hip flexion was found. Patients without sitting pain complaint demonstrated a higher pelvic-femoral ratio (22.8% ± 7.9% and 16.1% ± 7.5%, P = 0.010) compared to those with sitting pain complaint. CONCLUSION: Sagittal pelvic-femoral kinematics could have an influence on the symptomology of cam-type FAI. The small PI and insufficient sagittal pelvic tilting in the process of sitting down could be related to the complaint of sitting pain in patients with symptomatic cam-type FAI.

OBJECTIVES: Reduced sports function is often observed after hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). Impaired muscle strength could be reasons for this. We aimed to investigate hip muscle strength after hip arthroscopy for FAIS and its association with sports function and participation. DESIGN: Cross-sectional study. METHODS: We included 45 patients (34 males; mean age: 30.6⯱â¯5.9â¯years) after unilateral hip arthroscopy for FAIS (mean follow-up [range]: 19.3 [9.8-28.4] months). Maximal isometric hip muscle strength (Nm/kg) including early- (0-100â¯ms) and late-phase (0-200â¯ms) rate of torque development (Nm∗kg-1∗s-1) for adduction, abduction, flexion, and extension was measured with an externally fixated handheld dynamometer and compared between operated and non-operated hip. Associations between muscle strength and self-reported sports function and return to sport were investigated. RESULTS: For maximal hip muscle strength, no between-hip differences were observed for adduction, abduction, flexion, and extension (pâ¯≥â¯0.102). For rate of torque development, significantly lower values were observed for the operated hip in flexion at both 0-100â¯ms (mean difference: 1.58â¯Nm∗kg-1∗s-1, 95% CI [0.39; 2.77], pâ¯=â¯0.01) and 0-200â¯ms (mean difference: 0.72â¯Nm∗kg-1∗s-1, 95% CI [0.09; 1.35], pâ¯=â¯0.027). Higher maximal hip extension strength was significantly associated with greater ability to participate fully in preinjury sport at preinjury level (odds ratio: 17.71 95% CI [1.77; 177.60]). CONCLUSIONS: After hip arthroscopy for FAIS subjects show limited impairments in maximal and explosive hip muscle strength between operated and non-operated hip. Higher muscle strength was positively associated with higher sports function and ability to participate in sport.

OBJECTIVE: A higher prevalence of cam morphology has been reported in the athletic population but the development of the cam morphology is not fully understood. The purpose of this systematic review is to establish the timing of development of the cam morphology in athletes, the proximal femoral morphologies associated with its development, and other associated factors. DESIGN: Embase, MEDLINE and the Cochrane Library were searched for articles related to development of the cam morphology, and PRISMA guidelines were followed. Data was pooled using random effects meta-analysis. Study quality was assessed using the Downs and Black criteria and evidence quality using the GRADE framework. RESULTS: This search identified 16 articles involving 2,028 participants. In males, alpha angle was higher in athletes with closed physes than open physes (SMD 0.71; 95% CI 0.23, 1.19). Prevalence of cam morphology was associated with age during adolescence when measured per hip (ß 0.055; 95% CI 0.020, 0.091) and per individual (ß 0.049; 95% CI 0.034, 0.064). Lateral extension of the epiphysis was associated with an increased alpha angle (r 0.68; 95% CI 0.63, 0.73). A dose-response relationship was frequently reported between sporting frequency and cam morphology. There was a paucity of data regarding the development of cam morphology in females. CONCLUSIONS: Very low and low quality evidence suggests that in the majority of adolescent male athletes, osseous cam morphology developed during skeletal immaturity, and that prevalence increases with age. Very low quality evidence suggests that osseous cam morphology development was related to lateral extension of the proximal femoral epiphysis.

BACKGROUND: Despite previous reports of improvements for athletes following hip arthroscopy for femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS), many do not achieve clinically relevant outcomes. The purpose of this study was to develop machine learning algorithms capable of providing patient-specific predictions of which athletes will derive clinically relevant improvement in sports-specific function after undergoing hip arthroscopy for FAIS. METHODS: A registry was queried for patients who had participated in a formal sports program or athletic activities before undergoing primary hip arthroscopy between January 2012 and February 2018. The primary outcome was achieving the minimal clinically important difference (MCID) in the Hip Outcome Score-Sports Subscale (HOS-SS) at a minimum of 2 years postoperatively. Recursive feature selection was used to identify the combination of variables, from an initial pool of 26 features, that optimized model performance. Six machine learning algorithms (stochastic gradient boosting, random forest, adaptive gradient boosting, neural network, support vector machine, and elastic-net penalized logistic regression [ENPLR]) were trained using 10-fold cross-validation 3 times and applied to an independent testing set of patients. Models were evaluated using discrimination, decision-curve analysis, calibration, and the Brier score. RESULTS: A total of 1,118 athletes were included, and 76.9% of them achieved the MCID for the HOS-SS. A combination of 6 variables optimized algorithm performance, and specific cutoffs were found to decrease the likelihood of achieving the MCID: preoperative HOS-SS score of ≥58.3, Tönnis grade of 1, alpha angle of ≥67.1°, body mass index (BMI) of >26.6 kg/m2, Tönnis angle of >9.7°, and age of >40 years. The ENPLR model demonstrated the best performance (c-statistic: 0.77, calibration intercept: 0.07, calibration slope: 1.22, and Brier score: 0.14). This model was transformed into an online application as an educational tool to demonstrate machine learning capabilities. CONCLUSIONS: The ENPLR machine learning algorithm demonstrated the best performance for predicting clinically relevant sports-specific improvement in athletes who underwent hip arthroscopy for FAIS. In our population, older athletes with more degenerative changes, high preoperative HOS-SS scores, abnormal acetabular inclination, and an alpha angle of ≥67.1° achieved the MCID less frequently. Following external validation, the online application of this model may allow enhanced shared decision-making.

BACKGROUND: Morphological changes characteristic of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) are common in soccer players. However, the clinical relevance of such anatomical variations is still not well-defined. HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesized that high alpha angle values and/or acetabular retroversion index (ARI) are correlated with rotational range of motion (ROM) of the hip and that there are clinical-radiological diferences between the dominant lower limb (DLL) and nondominant lower limb (NDLL) in professional soccer players. STUDY DESIGN: Cross-sectional. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level 3. METHODS: A total of 59 male professional soccer players (average age 25.5 years, range 18-38 years) were evaluated in the preseason. As main outcome measures, we evaluated the alpha angle and the ARI and hip IR and ER ROM with radiographic analysis. RESULTS: The measurements taken on DLL and NDLL were compared and a significant difference was found between the sides in the ER (P = 0.027), where the DLL measures were 1.54° (95% CI, 0.18-2.89) greater than the NDLL. There were no significant differences between the sides in the measures of IR (P > 0.99), total ROM (P = 0.07), alpha angle (P = 0.250), and ARI (P = 0.079). The correlations between the rotation measurements and the alpha angle in each limb were evaluated and the coefficient values showed no correlation; so also between the ARI and rotation measures. CONCLUSION: Morphological changes of the femur or acetabulum are not correlated with hip IR and ER ROM in male professional soccer players. ER on the dominant side was greater than on the nondominant side. There was no significant difference in the other measurements between sides. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: In clinical practice, it is common to attribute loss of hip rotational movement to the presence of FAI. This study shows that anatomical FAI may not have a very strong influence on available hip rotational movement in professional soccer athletes.

BACKGROUND: Classifying hips with structural deformity on the spectrum from impingement to dysplasia is often subjective and frequently inexact. Currently used radiographic measures may inaccurately predict a hip's morphological stability in borderline hips. A recently described radiographic measure, the Femoro-Epiphyseal Acetabular Roof (FEAR) index, has demonstrated an ability to predict stability in the borderline hip. This measure is attractive to clinicians because procedures can be used on the basis of a hip's pathomechanics. This study was designed to further validate and characterize the FEAR index in a skeletally immature population, in hips with dysplasia/femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), and in asymptomatic hips. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES: (1) What are the characteristics of the FEAR index in children and how does the index change with skeletal maturation? (2) How does the FEAR index correlate with clinical diagnosis and surgical treatment in a large cohort of symptomatic hips and asymptomatic controls? (3) How does the FEAR index correlate with clinical diagnosis in the borderline hip (lateral center-edge angle [LCEA] 20°-25°) group? METHODS: A total of 220 participants with symptomatic investigational hips with a clinical diagnosis of dysplasia or FAI between January 2008 and January 2018 were retrospectively collected from the senior author's practice. Investigational hips were excluded if they had any femoral head abnormalities preventing LCEA measurement (for example, Perthes disease), Tönnis osteoarthritis grade greater than 1, prior hip surgery, or prior femoral osteotomy. In the 220 participants, 395 hips met inclusion criteria. Once exclusion criteria were applied, 15 hips were excluded due to prior hip surgery or prior femoral osteotomy, and 12 hips were excluded due to femoral head deformity. A single hip was then randomly selected from each participant, resulting in 206 investigational hips with a mean age of 13 ± 3 years. Between January 2017 and December 2017, 70 asymptomatic control participants were retrospectively collected from the senior author's institutional trauma database. Control hips were included if the AP pelvis film had the coccyx centered over the pubic symphysis and within 1 to 3 cm of the superior aspect of the symphysis. Control hips were excluded if there was any fracture to the pelvis or ipsilateral femur or the participant had prior hip/pelvis surgery. After exclusion criteria were applied, 16 hips were excluded due to fracture. One hip was then randomly selected from each participant, resulting in 65 control hips with a mean age of 16 ± 8 years. Standardized standing AP pelvis radiographs were used to measure the FEAR index, LCEA, and Tönnis angle in the investigational cohort. Standardized false-profile radiographs were used to measure the anterior center-edge angle (ACEA) in the investigational cohort. Two blinded investigators measured the FEAR index with an intraclass correlation coefficient of 0.92 [95% CI 0.84 to 0.96]. Question 1 was answered by comparing the above radiographic measures in age subgroups (childhood: younger than 10 years; adolescence: 10 to 14 years old; maturity: older than 14 years) of dysplastic, FAI, and control hips. Question 2 was answered by comparing the radiographic measures in all dysplastic, FAI, control hips, and a subgroup of operatively or nonoperatively managed dysplasia and FAI hips. Question 3 was answered by comparing the radiographic measures in borderline (LCEA 20°-25°) dysplastic, FAI, and control hips. RESULTS: The FEAR index was lower in older dysplastic of hips (younger than 10 years, 6° ± 9°; 10 to 14 years, 4° ± 10°; older than 14 years, 5° ± 9°; p < 0.001) and control hips (younger than 10 years, -6° ± 5°; 10 to 14 years, -15° ± 4°; older than 14 years, -16° ± 7°; p < 0.001). The diagnosis and age groups were independently correlated with the FEAR index (p < 0.001). The relationship between the FEAR index and diagnosis remained consistent in each age group (p = 0.11). The FEAR index was higher in all dysplastic hips (mean 5° ± 10°) than in asymptomatic controls (mean -13° ± 7°; p < 0.001) and FAI hips (mean -10° ± 11°; p < 0.001). Using -1.3° as a cutoff for FAI/control hips and dysplastic hips, 81% (112 of 139) of hips with values below this threshold were FAI/control, and 89% (117 of 132) of hips with values above -1.3° were dysplastic. The receiver operator characteristics area under the curve (ROC-AUC) was 0.91. Similarly, the FEAR index was higher in borderline dysplastic hips than in both asymptomatic borderline controls (p < 0.001) and borderline FAI hips (p < 0.001). Eighty-nine percent (33 of 37) of hips with values below this threshold were FAI/control, and 90% (37 of 41) of hips with values above -1.3° were dysplastic. The ROC-AUC for borderline hips was 0.86. CONCLUSION: The FEAR index was associated with the diagnosis of hip dysplasia and FAI in a patient cohort with a wide age range and with varying degrees of acetabular deformity. Specifically, a FEAR index greater than -1.3° is associated with a dysplastic hip and a FEAR index less than -1.3° is associated with a hip displaying FAI. Using this reliable, developmentally based radiographic measure may help hip preservation surgeons establish a correct diagnosis and more appropriately guide treatment.
