Acetabular labral tears and cartilage lesions of the hip: indirect MR arthrographic correlation with arthroscopy--a preliminary study.

Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess the diagnostic correlation between indirect MR arthrography, conventional MRI, and arthroscopy in acetabular labral and cartilage lesions of the hip.

Materials And Methods: Fourteen patients who underwent conventional and indirect MR arthrography with arthroscopic correlation were studied over the course of 18 months. MR studies were performed on a 1.

Flexor femoris muscle complex: grading systems used to describe the complete spectrum of injury.

The flexor femoris muscle complex (FFMC) is also known as the hamstring muscle complex or commonly as the "hamstrings." Three muscles comprise this group: the biceps femoris, the semitendinosus, and semimembranosus. The FFMC is one of the most frequent sites of muscle injury.
