Abstract
The evolution of the surgical techniques in orthopaedics reverberates in the physical therapy treatments that must complete the good functional recovery of the patients. The femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) or impingement syndrome of the hip joint is treated by relatively conservative surgery and later rehabilitation. Herein, we present the first patient treated in our service. Furthermore, speaking of this case, we make a review of the evaluation measurements and treatment guidelines in physiotherapy in order to spread the importance of meticulous monitoring of the chronology in the application of analgesics, anti-inflammatory drugs, massage therapy and kinesiotherapy.
