Key Points

  • This study aims to compare the hip morphology of soccer players with non-athletes using MRI assessments.
  • Utilized magnetic resonance imaging to analyze hip morphology
  • Compared collodiaphyseal angle, acetabular anteversion, and femoral head coverage between groups
  • Divided participants into soccer players and non-athlete controls
  • No significant difference in incidence of cam morphology between soccer players and non-athletes
  • No significant difference in incidence of pincer morphology between the two groups
  • Partial variations in femoroacetabular morphology were noted, but not clinically relevant

Abstract

Differences in collodiaphyseal angle, acetabular anteversion, and femoral head coverage ratio indicate partial variation in femoroacetabular morphology between groups; however, no evidence showed a higher incidence of cam or pincer morphology in soccer players.
