mri hip cam fai femoro acetabular impingement rea

This is a CAM type lesion / deformity of the femoral neck.

  • There is convexity of the supero lateral femoral head neck junction.
  • The normal supero lateral femoral head neck junction should be concave like the inferior junction.
  • The convexity may be diffuse or localised.
  • This can predispose (but doesn’t always) to femoro-acetabular impingement.

Convexity of the anterior superior femoral head neck junction (Pink arrow). Compare with normal concavity (Green arrow).
