Aspherical hips can cause joint damage and pain. Hip arthroscopy to correct femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and reshape the hip spherically leads to excellent outcomes with complete cam resection.
Area of Science:
- Orthopedics
- Sports Medicine
- Biomechanical Engineering
Background:
- Aspherical hip morphology can lead to mechanical damage, chondrolabral injury, pain, and arthritis.
- Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition characterized by abnormal hip joint shape.
- Labral pathology often coexists with FAI.
