The prevalance of femoroacetabular impingement findings on radiological survey of the emergeny service patients with trauma

Abstract

Femoroacetabular impingemet (FAI) is a disease causing hip pain in young-adult population and can be diagnosed frequently on asymptomatic stage. The European studies on this subject show that 20-25% of the population actually has asymptomatic FAI. Actually, there is no study in Turkey on this topic. The purpose of our study is to determine the prevalance of FAI on the X-rays of the patients who applied to the emergency service with trauma.
