   Sammanfattning : Background: Young athletes are at increasing risk for spinal column injuries and back pain due to excessive sporting activities, with potential development of complications like spinal canal stenosis and chronic back pain later in life. Increased knowledge is necessary in order to make the correct diagnosis and to be able to adapt the appropriate preventive measures, rehabilitation programs, and treatments accordingly. LÄS MER

   Sammanfattning : Abstract Hip and groin pain is common among athletes and the active population, and one important cause for this is femoroacetabular impingement syndrome (FAIS). To meet the diagnosis of FAIS, a combination of radiological findings (cam and/or pincer morphology), hip pain and clinical findings (reduced hip joint range of motion (ROM) and/or positive anterior impingement test (FADIR)) needs to be present.
