95% prevalence of abnormality on hip MRI in elite academy level rugby union: A clinical and imaging study of hip disorders

Abstract: The prevalence of abnormality on MRI of the hip is high in rugby players at 95% of study participants. The percentage reporting symptoms was lower at 65% of the cohort although this was significantly higher than (non-rugby) matched controls at 15% of participants. Rugby players demonstrated significantly reduced ROM of the hip compared to controls. Further prospective research is required to investigate the long term sequelae of these findings.

“…In total, 375 (28%) of the athletes were women and 960 were men. The included studies investigated different sports including American football (n=174) [62,49], soccer (n=100) [57,53], ice hockey (n=179) [64,58,59,48], ballet (n=110) [65,52,66,50,63], rugby (n=20) [55], golf (n=55) [67], skiing (n=27) [58], track and field (n=22) [56], capoeira (n=24) [51] and mixed sports (n=624) [65,52,66,61,54,60]. The level of play reported in the included studies included professional [63,65,52,66,50,59,64,61], elite [56,48,67,55,54,49,62,59], semi-professional [57], amateur or recreational [57,65,52,66,61] and youth/high school level…”

“…Five studies (4 MR and 1 HR) [48,57,55,58,59] reported the prevalence of labral tears per person in asymptomatic athletes. Limited evidence from 4 studies (4 MR) [48,55,58,57] identified a labral tear prevalence of 54% (95%CI 22% to 83%) per person (Figure 2). The remaining study (HR) [59] reported a labral tear prevalence of 56% in ice hockey players competing at professional and collegiate level respectively.…”
