Bilateral Femoroacetabular Impingement Syndrome: A Case Report

Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is an abnormal contact of the acetabulum with the femur, particularly during flexion and hip rotation, caused by anatomical abnormalities in the femur head and acetabulum, and may result in labral and cartilage damage in the hips. According to the graphical features of the pelvis AP, three types of FAI were defined: cam, pincer and, mix type. Moreover, the mix is the most common type, where typically patients complain of pain in the hip and groin. With symptomatic treatment in the initial phase, the patient’s complaints are relieved. However, if the severity of the impingement progresses, the patient may be referred for surgery. Arthroscopic or open surgery corrects the deformity of the femur head and acetabulum.

Bilateral Femoroasetabular Sıkışma Sendromlu Olgu Sunumu

Femoroasetabular sıkışma (FAS) femur başı ve asetabulumdaki anatomik anormalliklerin neden olduğu, kalçanın özellikle fleksiyon ve rotasyon hareketleri sırasında olan femurla asetabulumun anormal temasıdır ve kalçada labral ve kartilaj hasarına kadar ilerleyebilir. Pelvis AP grafide görünümlerine göre 3 tip FAS tanımlanmış; cam, pincer ve miks tip. En sık görülen miks tiptir. Genellikle hastalarda kalça ve kasıkta ağrı yakınması bulunur. Başlangıç evresinde semptomatik tedavi ile hastanın şikayetleri gerilerken, sıkışma ilerlerse hasta cerrahiye yönlendirilir. Artroskopik ya da açık cerrahi ile femur başı ve asetabulumdaki deformite düzeltilir.
