Coxa profunda | Radiology Reference Article | Radiopaedia.org
Sep 27, 2022 · Coxa profunda refers to a deep acetabular socket (i.e. increased acetabular depth). Coxa profunda is much more common in females. On AP pelvis x-rays it is seen as the lateral border of the acetabular teardrop being in line with or medial to the ilioischial line 4.
Coxa Profunda - Cause, Symptoms, Radiology, Treatment
Jul 25, 2023 · Coxa profunda refers to a cavernous acetabular socket (i.e. increased acetabular depth). Coxa profunda is much more usual in females. Over time, a pyncer-type lesion develops, because of acetabular overcoverage, with consequent lesion of the acetabular labrum or subsequently acetabular cartilage.
Femoroacetabular impingement syndrome | Radiology Reference …
Jun 18, 2024 · Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) syndrome is painful, limited hip motion due to specific morphological abnormalities in the femoral head-neck region and/or acetabulum. Femoroacetabular impingement can lead to early degenerative disease.
Pincer morphology (femoroacetabular impingement) | Radiology …
Apr 7, 2022 · Acetabular overcoverage is due to an increased acetabular depth such as coxa profunda or protrusio acetabuli, if focal it can be due to acetabular retroversion, a prominent posterior rim, or an acetabular ossicle 1.
Femoroacetabular Impingement | Radsource - Radsource: PACS Radiology …
Femoral head overcoverage may be localized from retroversion, localized hypertrophy, osteophytes, or an ossified labrum, or it may be global from coxa profunda or protrusio acetabuli. The lateral center edge angle (LCE) appears to be a better measure of overcoverage than the extrusion index, since LCE will not be affected by enlargement of the ...
Femoroacetabular Impingement: Radiographic …
The acetabular index is the angle formed by a horizontal line and a line connecting the medial point of the sclerotic zone with the lateral center of the acetabulum. In hips with coxa profunda or protrusio acetabuli, the acetabular index (also called “acetabular roof angle”) is …
coxa profunda is defined with the floor of the fossa acetabuli touching or overlapping the ilioischial line medially (Fig. 7). Protru-sio acetabuli occurs when the femoral head is overlapping the ilioischial line medially (Fig. 8). Both forms relate to an increased depth of the acetabuli; however, at this stage no clear information exists that ...
Morphological features of the acetabulum with coxa profunda in …
May 31, 2024 · The morphology of coxa profunda remains inadequately understood. However, knowledge about the characteristics of the acetabulum in coxa profunda can help to predict pelvic morphology in three dimensions based on radiographic findings, as well as help to diagnose and predict hip pathologies.
Imaging of femoroacetabular impingement-current concepts
Acetabular depth is assessed on the AP pelvic radiograph. It is quantified by the coxa profunda and protusio acetabuli sign. Coxa profunda is defined as positive if the acetabular socket touches or crosses the ilio-ischial line. Acetabular protrusion is present, if the femoral head touches or crosses the ilio-ischial line .

Imaging studies play a key role in establishing the diagnosis of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). When clinical examination is suggestive of FAI, radiographic evidence should confirm the diagnosis. Imaging findings must be evaluated in the context of the patient's clinical presentation and recreational activities.
