    Study Notes

    Orthopedic Examination (OE)

    • Cluster of symptoms includes O'briens test, crank test, and biceps load II.
    • Active Range of Motion (AROM) remains largely intact.
    • Tenderness observed upon palpation of the affected area.

    Femoro-Acetabular Impingement (FAI)

    • Characterized by symptomatic premature contact between acetabulum and proximal femur.
    • Patients may report a dull deep pain in the anterior hip or groin area.
    • Hip morphology can cause a movement disorder, leading to painful contact between femur and acetabulum due to abnormal anatomy.
    • Clinically recognized types:
      • Cam morphology: identifiable bony bump at femoral head-neck junction.
      • Pincer morphology: over-coverage of acetabulum or femoral retroversion.
      • Mixed morphology: presence of both cam and pincer characteristics.
    • Symptoms may include joint locking, clicking, or catching sensations during movement.
    • Activities that exacerbate impingement symptoms should be noted; specific movements may provoke pain.
    • Positive pain provocation with FABER (Flexion, ABduction, External Rotation) and Ober's tests signal underlying issues.

    Groin Pain

    • Adductor-related groin pain characterized by tenderness and discomfort during resisted strength testing (RSC) of adductors.
    • Iliopsoas-related pain is assessed through hip flexion resistance and noted during the Thomas test.
    • Inguinal-related pain presents as tenderness in the inguinal canal region with no visible palpable hernia.
