There should be a high level of suspicion for articular cartilage delamination in men and in patients with primarily cam-type femoroacetabular impingement. Acetabular overcoverage may be protective against delamination. Preoperative high-quality magnetic resonance arthrograms should be carefully analyzed for evidence of delamination in this patient population.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
