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

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 rotating the leg during hip arthroscopy improves outcomes for people with femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), a condition where extra bone on the hip causes pain and limited movement. It aims to see if this rotation technique reduces pain and improves function better than standard surgery.
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 MRI scans to compare the shape of the hip joint in people with an ACL tear versus those without. The goal is to see if certain hip conditions are more common in people with ACL tears, which may help future injury prevention and treatment.
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.
