Abstrakt: Objective: Cam hip morphology is associated with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome and causes hip osteoarthritis (OA). We aimed to assess the prevalence of cam hip morphology in a sample representative of the general population, using a measure with a predefined diagnostic accuracy.
Design: Patients aged 16-65, who were admitted to a major trauma centre and received a computed tomography (CT) pelvis were retrospectively screened for eligibility. Subjects with proximal femoral, acetabular or pelvic fractures and those who were deceased were excluded. Eligible subjects were divided into 10 groups based on gender and age. 20 subjects from each group were included. Subjects' index of multiple deprivation (IMD) and ethnicity were recorded. CT imaging was assessed and alpha angles (a measure of cam morphology) measured in the anterosuperior aspect of the femoral head neck junction. An alpha angle greater than 60° was considered to represent cam morphology. This measure and technique has a predefined sensitivity of 80% and specificity of 73% to detect cam morphology associated with FAI syndrome. The prevalence of cam morphology was reported as a proportion of subjects affected with 95% confidence intervals.
Results: 200 subjects were included. The sample was broadly representative of the UK general population in terms of IMD. 155 subjects (86%) identified as white. Cam morphology was present in 47% (95% CI 42,51) of subjects.
Conclusions: In this sample, broadly representative of the UK general population 47% of subjects had cam hip morphology; a hip shape associated with FAI syndrome and OA.
