Abstract

We aim to determine if pelvic incidence (PI) differed between a symptomatic femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) population and a control. We retrospectively identified a cohort of symptomatic FAI patients and compared measured PI to a control group. The PI was significantly lower in the FAI group compared to the control (51.32±1.07 vs. 55.63±1.04; <i>P</i> < 0.01). The mean PI was significantly decreased in the FAI population compared to a control.
