Labral tear
List 6 common causes of anterior hip pain

- OA
- Synovitis
- Groin related pain
- Ligamentum Teres tear
List 4 not to be missed causes of anterior hip pain

- Slipped capital femoral epiphysis
- Perthes disease
Most common cause of lateral hip pain
- Glute med. tear or tendinopathy
List 3 not to be missed causes of lateral hip pain
- Tumour

- NOF #
What is a highly sensitive test for a labral tear ?
FADIR
List two PROMs for hip pathology
- Copenhagen hip and groin outcome score
2. Hip dysfunction and OA outcome score
List two highly sensitive tests when testing OA
- Passive internal rotation less than 25 degrees
2. Pain with active hip extension
Pain and reduced range on a Thomas test can confidently indicate what?
Non-specific Intrarticular pathology and length of hip flexors
What is the close-packed position of the hip joint ?
Extension, adduction and IR
Femoral retro version might limit what movement ?
Internal rotation
Acetabular retroversion may limit what movement
Internal rotation
How might foot probation impact the hip?
Lead to internal tibial rotation, in turn leading to overload on the ITB. Increased ITB tension adds further compressive force on the greater trochanter, potentially cause tendinopathy or bursitis.
Internal tibial rotation may also lead to femoral internal rotation, adding further joint reaction force to the acetabular
Define a CAM Femoral-acetabular impingement
- morphological abnormality on the head-neck junction of femur
Define a Pincer Femoral-acetabular impingement
Morphological abnormality on the acetabulum
What movements are problematic in Pincer FAI
Hip flexion
