Patients with FAI had a high prevalence of combined abnormalities of FT and TT. For hip dysplasia, we found a significantly higher mean FT and TT, while 21% of patients (11 hips) had combined increased TT and increased FT (combined torsional malalignment). This is important when planning hip preserving surgery such as periacetabular osteomy and femoral derotation osteotomy. Cite this article: Bone Joint J 2020;102-B(12):1636-1645.
