title: [The labrum acetabular. Apropos of 121 arthrographies of the hip in adults].
abstract: The authors report a retrospective study of 121 arthrographies of the hip in adults, excluding prostheses. The study was based on normal pathological values for angular measurement of the labrum acetabular: ECB angle (mean value: 15 degrees) enlarging the lateral cover of the head of the femur, VCE angle (mean value: 30 degrees) and a mean global VCB angle of 45 degrees. A certain equilibrium was observed between the covering capacity of the acetabulum and the covering capacity of the labrum acetabular. Numerous anomalies of the labrum were observed, including fissures in about 30% of cases. A large number of fissures were associated with other degenerative anomalies of the hip joint. A few fissures resulting in detachment of a strip of labrum were isolated and the possibility of their traumatic etiology and their pathogenic nature in clinical symptoms are discussed.
