Femoroacetabular Impingement Negates the Acetabular Labral Seal During Pivoting Maneuvers but Not Gait

摘要

Experimental disruption of the labrum has been shown to compromise its sealing function and alter cartilage lubrication. However, it is not known whether pathological changes to the labrum secondary to femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) have a similar impact on labral function.
