Hip and pelvic measurements study for younger adults
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study compares hip positioning (acetabular angle) with pelvic tilt in people with femoro-acetabular impingement and in healthy volunteers. It may help researchers better understand hip mechanics and how they relate to symptoms and planning for arthroscopy surgery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 49 years old
- You either have a confirmed femoro-acetabular impingement diagnosis and are being considered for hip arthroscopy surgery, or you have no such diagnosis
- You can sign informed consent and understand the study information
- You must be covered by the study’s social security plan (or be a beneficiary)
- You have not had surgery on the same hip before

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study measures how your hip moves (the “mechanics”) using clinical exams and imaging. It may help researchers understand hip movement problems in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) before major joint damage develops.
This study tests whether changing the rotation of your leg during hip arthroscopy (a keyhole surgery) improves outcomes for people with hip impingement syndrome. It may help you if you have persistent hip pain that hasn't gotten better with other treatments.
This study tests whether using 3D-printed models from scans can help plan hip preservation surgery for people with a specific hip shape problem (cam-type femoroacetabular impingement). It may help surgeons plan more precisely, though you would only be eligible if your hip damage and other health factors fit specific limits.
This trial tests whether a program of education plus exercise can reduce long-term hip or groin pain. It may help by improving movement and function, especially when pain has lasted more than 3 months.
This study uses a special 3D MRI to look at the hip joint in people who have torn their ACL. The goal is to see if a hip shape problem called femoroacetabular impingement (pinching in the hip) is linked to ACL tears.
This study follows adults who will receive an investigational hip implant because their hip pain or disability is severe and not improved by other options. It checks how the implant system works and monitors patients over time with scheduled visits and questionnaires.
