Aims

The prevalence of combined abnormalities of femoral torsion (FT) and tibial torsion (TT) is unknown in patients with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and hip dysplasia. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of combined abnormalities of FT and TT, and which subgroups are associated with combined abnormalities of FT and TT.

Methods

We retrospectively evaluated symptomatic patients with FAI or hip dysplasia with CT scans performed between September 2011 and September 2016. A total of 261 hips (174 patients) had a measurement of FT and TT. Their mean age was 31 years (SD 9), and 63% were female (165 hips). Patients were compared to an asymptomatic control group (48 hips, 27 patients) who had CT scans including femur and tibia available for analysis, which had been acquired for nonorthopaedic reasons. Comparisons were conducted using analysis of variance with Bonferroni correction.
