Protrusio acetabuli - what does this mean

Protrusio acetabuli is a rare congenital disorder in which the hip socket (acetabulum) is abnormally deepened and widened, causing the femoral head (the ball of the hip joint) to protrude. this can lead to hip instability, pain, and limited range of motion.

What happens during the disease - protrusio acetabuli

Protrusio acetabuli is a condition in which the acetabular socket of the hip joint is abnormally deepened, causing the femoral head to protrude out of the socket. this is caused by a weakening of the acetabular labrum and the joint capsule, which normally provide stability to the hip joint. this weakening can be caused by a number of factors, including trauma, inflammatory conditions, genetic disorders, and congenital abnormalities. the result is a hip joint with excessive mobility and instability, leading to pain, decreased range of motion, and an increased risk of hip dislocation.
