Background Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI), characterized by cam and pincer morphologies, is a common source of hip pain. Understanding the relationships between hip morphology, clinical test outcomes, and pain severity is critical for improving FAI diagnosis and management. This study investigated correlations between cam signs, alpha angle, pincer/retroversion signs, lateral center-edge (LCE) angle, clinical tests, and pain in patients with FAI syndrome.
