Hip Dysfunction in Patients with Femoroacetabular Impingement
Journal Title: Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja - Year 2017, Vol 19, Issue 4
Abstract
This paper summarizes hip disorders caused by femoroacetabular impingement. This pathomechanical process, which is associated with bone deformity, is one of the most commonly diagnosed causes of pain and dysfunction of the hip. It also often leads to decrease in the quality of life and osteoarthritis. Patients with hip joint impingement exhibit a restricted range of motion, thickening of the hip capsule, muscle weakness and compensatory changes in loading patterns, which affects the biomechanics of the entire lower extremity. Therefore, treatment of femoroacetabular impingement should not only involve surgical correction of the deformity, but also physiotherapy serving to eliminate soft tissue restrictions and pathological movement patterns.
