Femuro acetabular

The hip joint involvement in multiple hereditary exostoses (MHE) occurs in 30-90%, causing pain and limitation of motion by femoroacetabular impingement, coxa valga, acetabular dysplasia, hip joint subluxation, and osteoarthritis. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical and radiographic outcomes of ten hips in seven patients treated by surgical dislocation and corrective osteotomies between 2004 and 2009. Surgical dislocation and excision of the osteochondromas and varus intertrochanteric osteotomies were performed in all cases when the neck-shaft angle was > 150°...

The doctoral thesis is based on eight papers published in peer-reviewed journals and a review of the literature. The papers are published between 1997 and 2013 in cooperation with Sankt Elisabeth Hospital, Herlev Hospital, Glostrup Hospital, Rigshospitalet, Hvidovre Hospital, Amager Hospital, Copenhagen Trial Unit, and Institute of Preventive Medicine, Copenhagen. Groin injuries in sport are very common and in football they are among the most common and most time-consuming injuries. These injuries are treated very differently around the world...

INTRODUCTION: Groin pain is a common symptom in athletes, particularly in sports requiring sudden changes in speed and direction and those involving kicking. Despite a high prevalence of groin pain in this patient cohort, the diagnosis and management of the underlying pathological processes remains a challenge for surgeons and radiologists alike. AIM: The aim of this paper is to review the imaging findings and management of the common pathological processes which produce groin pain in athletes...

Hip arthroscopy is a rapidly evolving field in terms of indications, prognostic factors and surgical technique. The most common indication for hip arthroscopy is femuro-acetabular impingement. Femuro-acetabular impingement (FAI) may produce symtoms of pain in association with athletic activity or in daily life. FAI is caused by osteophytes on the cervikal head-neck junction (cam) or at the acetabular edge (pincer). Treatment of femuro-acetabular impingement includes resection of the impinging osteophytes, preferably using arthroscopic technique...
