4 N/A Mitigating Potential Bias

5 Review: Common adult hip problems (ahp) Relevant: H&P Imaging studies Objectives

6 Outcomes Be able to apply this knowledge to develop an approach to the assessment of ahp s Feel comfortable to: Perform an appropriate H&P Order appropriate imaging studies and ancillary tests

7 Hip Pain Important / prevalent problem Affects about 15% (8-20%) esp. > 60 yo Family MD s q 1-2 wk.6% of office visits 1/164 cases

8 Hip Pain Leads to substantial in HR QOL especially in the elderly: Physical Function ADL s / stairs Pain

9 Etiology Extra-articular: Intra-articular: Bursitis Muscular/Tendon IT band Contusion/strain Referred Arthritis (OA/inflammatory) AVN Fracture Mechanical e.g. labrum, loose bodies

10 Remember that the hip can be an important source of referred pain to the knee (Obturator nerve) Pain can also be referred to the hip

11 Anatomy

12 Anatomy

13 History Age / General health Occupation Activities / level Past hx (gen. and hip ) Onset Trauma Aggravating / relieving factors Location Groin / anterior thigh Lateral Posterior / buttock

14

15 History Focus on FUNCTION! Work Leisure Dwelling Be open minded!

16 History Activities (especially how they are interfered with i.e. what they can no longer do?) Quality of Life Many QOL scoring systems providing more objective data are easily available (PRO s)

17 Physical Exam Gait / standing Observe LLD / Pulses Palpation ROM (NB IR, Abduction) Special Trendelenburg Log roll FABER (Flex, ABd,ER) FADIR (Flex,Add,IR) Ober SLR

18 Physical Exam Can you reproduce the patient s symptoms with the exam?

19 Physical Exam Observe Deformities / contractures Atrophy Leg lengths Pedal pulse

20 Physical Exam Trendelenburg Patient stands on affected limb Test is positive if contralateral hemi pelvis drops. (T-burg gait - pt tries to avoid this and lurches over the hip on the affected side) Abductor weakness

21 Physical Exam Trendelenburg Gait

22 Physical Exam FABER Flexion- ABduction- External Rotation Helps differentiate hip from SI joint as source of pain

23 Physical Exam FADIR Flexion ADduction- Internal Rotation Impingement test

24 Physical Exam Ober Test for IT band tightness

25 Log Roll Physical Exam Positive with intrarticular pathology

26 Imaging Hip x-ray: PELVIS! AP/Lateral of hip

27 Imaging

28 Imaging Cross table lateral vs Frog-leg lateral

29 Imaging U/S- operator dependent MRI- most sensitive CT- bony detail, # Nuclear Medicine

30 Imaging MRI Does NOT replace x- rays! Best modality for: Soft tissues ( labrum) Early detection # s, AVN ( extent and contra-lateral hip)? overly sensitive? over used

31 Diff Dx Anterior: Usually intra-articular C sign Arthritis FAI Labrum Fracture AVN Synovitis / Septic Arthritis

32 OA Most common diagnosis seen by Family MD s in patients >40 yo (44%)

33 Inflammatory Arthritis RA, AS, etc Remember IBD

34 AVN

35 Trauma Steroids ETOH Metabolic Caisson s Radiation Thrombotic Transplant Idiopathic AVN Etiology

36 Traumatic AVN Femoral neck # Hip dislocation? Minor trauma Must follow least 2 years

37

38

39 Normal AVN

40 AVN Staging Stage 0: abnormal MRI (silent hip) Stage 1: abnormal scan (silent hip) Stage 2: non-specific x-ray changes Stage 3: subchondral collapse(crescent sign) Stage 4: femoral head collapse/arthritis Stage 5: arthritic changes both sides of joint

41 Fracture Femoral Neck Inter/Sub Trochanteric Stress # s Pelvis especially pubic rami Atypical # s with Bisphosphonates (especially pre #) NB if strong index of suspicion and negative x- rays consider MRI,Bone scan

42 Intertrochanteric Fracture

43 Atypical Fracture

44 Atypical Fracture

45 Labral Tears Usually insidious onset (worse prognosis) 50% have mechanical symptoms + FABER 88% + FADIR 75-96%

46 Labral Tears Can be difficult to detect even on MRI Addition of MR Arthrography increases sensitivity to 90% (vs 30%)

47 Mechanical symptoms: Snapping Popping Catching/locking Sharp stabbing pain Can be difficult to diagnose on H&P U/S (dynamic) MRI but remember sensitivity and often specificity

48 Snapping Hip Often pops are felt by pt but not by MD During physical exam many pops / clicks are normal and not indicative of an intraarticular problem

49 Snapping Generalisation: Easily audible = Iliopsoas Easily visible = IT band

50 Lateral; Greater Trochanteric pain syndrome Bursitis IT band Tendonapathy Meralgia Paresthetica Diff Dx

51 Bursitis Trochanteric most common Usually tender on palpation May respond to topical Rx, injection

52 Diff Dx Posterior: LS causes SI joint Piriformis syndrome Vascular

53 L2-S1 innervation Especially L3 (dermatome) LS causes SI joint (FABER test) Anecdotal evidence for trial of intraarticular local anesthetic infiltration to assess contribution of hip joint as source of pain

54 Hip Pain in Adults : Evaluation Hip Pain Diff Dx Always remember to consider infection/neoplastic etiology if appropriate (CBC,CRP,ESR) Any painful THR is infected until proven otherwise

55 Review: Common adult hip problems Relevant: H&P Imaging studies Conclusion

56 Conclusion Be able to apply this knowledge to develop an approach to the assessment of ahp s Feel comfortable to: Perform an appropriate H&P Order appropriate imaging and ancillary tests
