Methods: We prospectively included 94 adult individuals who underwent CT for thoracic, abdominal or urologic pathologies. Patients with a clinical history of hip pathology and/or with osteoarthritis on CT were excluded.
Objective: The purpose of this article is to evaluate and compare the prevalence and measurement values of CT signs of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) in asymptomatic hips without CT signs of osteoarthritis between two age groups: younger than 40 years and older than 60 years.
Subjects And Methods: We prospectively included patients undergoing thoracoabdominopelvic MDCT for nonorthopedic indications with asymptomatic hips and excluded hips with signs of osteoarthritis seen on CT. Two age groups including 75 hips each were enrolled (< 40 years old: mean age, 31 years; 15 women; > 60 years old: mean age, 66 years; 21 women).
