Abstract :AIM: The aim of this study is to find out if there is a relationship between femoroacetabular syndrome and the risk of hip fractures that have been known with high morbidity and mortality rates. MATERIAL AND METHOD: Between January 1st of 2015 and January 1st of 2020, data of 243 patients with intertrochanteric fracture, 126 patients with femoral neck fracture and 250 trauma patients of over 65 years old that had admitted to our hospital’s emergency department but had no fracture on both pelvis AP x-ray and pelvis CT, were evaluated retrospectively. While central edge angle, acetabular index and singh index were measured on AP x-ray of pelvis, alfa-angle, anterior offset and anterior offset ratio were measured on pelvis CT. RESULTS: No significant differences were found between the groups forming the hip fracture and the control group in terms of gender, age and Singh index, indicating that these factors were homogeneously distributed between the groups and had no effect on the factors investigated insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p>0.05);. The central edge angle, acetabular index, alpha angle, anterior offset and anterior offset ratio were found to be significantly different insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05); in both hip fracture group compared to the control group in favor of femoroacetabular impingement. CONCLUSION: The analysis results support our hypothesis and show that femoroacetabular impingement may cause hip fracture. As a result, the relationship of femoroacetabular impingement with hip fractures, which is the cause of high mortality and morbidity should be kept in mind.
