OBJECTIVE: @entity1743 ( @entity1743 ) is a common cause of hip discomfort in young adults. Recently, a better understanding of the pathomechanics and @entity154 in the hip has implicated @entity1743 as a possible factor in early @entity571 . The clinical presentation, physical examination findings, and radiographic features are discussed in this article. DATA SOURCES: PubMed was searched using words and terms including femoacetabular impingement, @entity570 , @entity572 , early @entity571 , and @entity572 . References of relevant studies were searched by hand. STUDY SELECTION: All studies directly involving the treatment of @entity1743 were reviewed by 3 authors and selected for further analysis, including expert opinion and review articles. DATA SYNTHESIS: The quality of each study was assessed, and the results were summarized. CONCLUSIONS: Conservative measures, including physical therapy, restriction of activities, core strengthening, improvement of sensory-motor, and control and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatories are the mainstays of nonsurgical treatment. However, surgical management is often necessary to allow full return to activity with options including surgical @entity572 , @entity572 , periacetabular and rotational osteotomies, and combined @entity572 with a limited open exposure. Although the literature is replete with short-term evidence to support surgical treatment, there are currently no long-term prospective data or natural history studies examining the implications of @entity1743 and effects of early intervention.
