Hip pain: A comparison of Osteoarthritis and Femoroacetabular Impingement Kristine Flais, PT, DPT
Most common cause of hip pain in older adults Prevalence of Hip OA
Age Gender Race Developmental disorders Genetics Occupation Sports exposure Previous injury Body mass index Leg length discrepancy Risk Factors
Entire joint structure is affected: Joint capsule shortening thickening& lengthening Osteophytes/spur development Sclerosis of subchondral bone Muscle weakness Pathoanatomical Features of OA
Joint space narrowing Osteophytes/spurs Subchondral sclerosis Imaging Findings
4 out of the 5 indicates a strong prediction of OA + LR 24.3: Probability of OA 91% Squatting increased symptoms Lateral hip pain with active hip FLEX Scour test with ADD causes lateral hip/groin pain Pain with active hip EXT PROM IR < to 25º Clinical prediction rule for OA
Patient profile: Greater than 60 y/o Pain description, location, behavior: Morning stiffness hip & groin Improves in less than an hour Lateral hip pain hip flexion weight bearing Posterior hip pain with squatting Aggravating factors: Walking Standing Squatting Stairs Kneeling Patient Profile
Assess hip ROM and joint mobility Limited passive hip joint motion in at least 3 of 6 motions Hip flexion < 115 Hip IR < 25º Examination
Assess hip strength SLR x 4 Hip IR/ER MMT Examination

Scour test + scour test with adduction causes lateral hip or groin pain https://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=wob2es GaPLM&feature=play er_detailpage Examination
OA progresses slowly with THR/THA the primary clinical endpoint Dependent upon the severity and progression of OA Prognosis
Patient Education Gait & Balance training Manual treatment Hip joint mobilizations Caudal glide with hip flexion Lateral glide with IR FABER mob Long Axis Distraction Interventions
Caudal glide with hip FL Lateral glide w/hip IR FABER mobilization Long-axis distraction Hip mobilizations
Exercise Stretching techniques of shortened muscles Aerobic conditioning Strengthening hip abductors Interventions
Single Knee to chest self mobilization technique
Abnormal contact between the femoral head/neck and the acetabular margin Femoroacetabular Impingement
Pincer impingement: Acetabular abnormalities Cam impingement: Femoral head/neck abnormalities Combination: Most common Categories of Impingement
Genetics Sex Pincer lesions 30-40 y/o active women Cam impingement 20-30 y/o athletic men Sports Hockey players Goalies Butterfly style Risk Factors
Pincer Impingement: Increase acetabular depth Coxa Profunda Acetabular Protrusion Decreased acetabular depth Acetabular retroversion Radiographic Findings
Cam Impingement: Increased femoral neck diameter Increased thickness of femoral head-neck junction Radiographic Findings
Patient profile: Healthy active 25-50 y/o Involved in athletics Pain description, location, behavior: Anterior groin pain Sharp, catching, pinching C sign Aggravating factors: Running Excessive hip flexion Worst after/with sitting Squatting Twisting maneuvers Recumbent bike Patient Profile
Swayback posture Lengthened external oblique & iliopsoas Shortened rectus femoris and tensor fascia latae Disuse atrophy Gluteal musculature: Examination: Posture
Limited hip flexion, IR, &/or adduction compared to opposite side Insufficient posterior glide/joint play during hip flexion Examination: ROM
MMT: Iliopsoas, Gluteus medius, Gluteus maximus, Hamstrings, TFL Commonly iliopsoas long & weak TFL short Glut max short & weak Examination: Muscle Length/Strength
FADIR impingement test: Hip & knee flexion 90º combine with hip adduction and IR + sign sudden, sharp pain which replicates sx https://www.youtube.co m/watch?feature=player_ detailpage&v=zde_0vn Pjkw Examination: Special Tests
Thomas test https://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=nbrxinzvjs Ober s test https://www.youtube.c om/watch?v=3iz57sm 17-M Examination: Special Tests
Forward Bending Single leg stance Single leg step down SLR hip extension Quadruped rock back Gait Analysis Walking & running Examination: Movement analysis
FAI is proposed to contribute to OA Surgical management Arthroscopic procedures Labral tear resection or repair Clinical Course
Physical Therapy Manual therapy Stretching Strengthening Neuromuscular Re-ed Activity modification: Avoid activities that place the hip joint in positions that create impingement End range flexion, internal rotation, and adduction Interventions
Improve ROM Hip mobs Strengthen hip musculature Prone hip extension with knee flexion Side-lying hip lateral rotation Side -lying hip abduction with ER Ckc: lunges, standing hip hikes, single leg squats, forward step ups Correct faulty movement patterns Increasing step rate Decreased hip extension at terminal Use softer surfaces Avoid treadmill or narrow trail Dynamic warm-up Do NOT run consecutive days for 1st month Cross train Conservation Treatment Goals
Hip OA Greater than 60 y/o Morning stiffness hip & groin Lateral hip pain with WB and/or hip flexion (Trendelenburg gait) Squatting increased symptoms Lateral hip pain with active hip FLEX Scour test with ADD causes lateral hip/groin pain Pain with active hip EXT PROM IR < or = to 25º FAI 25-50 y/o Involved in athletics Anterior groin pain Sharp, catching, pinching No lateral thigh pain Worst after/with sitting Pinching Limited hip flexion, IR &/or adduction compared to opposite side +Impingement test (FADIR) Final Comparison
