About

Femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) is a common disease of the hip joint. In this study, whole-genome sequencing was used to further explore the pathogenesis of this disease.

Full description

Femoral acetabular impingement (FAI) is a group of chronic hip pain caused by the impact between the proximal femur and the edge of the acetabulum due to the anatomical abnormality of the hip joint, which damages the labrum and adjacent cartilage, and causes limited hip movement, especially limited flexion and internal rotation. However, the specific etiology of FAI is still unknown at present. The application of genome-wide, exon and transcription research methods to the study of hip impaction syndrome can uncover key differentially expressed genes and provide a theoretical basis for the study of FAI.
