Hip Joint Stresses Due to Cam-Type Femoroacetabular Impingement: A Systematic Review of Finite Element Simulations.
BACKGROUND:The cam deformity causes the anterosuperior femoral head to obstruct with the acetabulum, resulting in femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and elevated risks of early osteoarthritis.Several finite element models have simulated adverse loading conditions due to cam FAI, to better understand the relationship between mechanical stresses and
