Methods A retrospective review of a prospectively collected ACL registry was performed to identify patients with pelvis radiographs before undergoing either primary or revision ACLR between January 2010 and August 2020. Alpha angle (AA), head‐neck offset ratio (HNOR), lateral center edge angle (LCEA), and crossover sign (COS) were measured on the operative side. Values were compared to a negative control group that did not significantly differ in age, sex, or body mass index. Univariate analysis and Pearson’s correlation coefficient were used to compare groups with significance defined as P < .05. Results In total, 114 patients were included (ACL, n = 38; control, n = 76). Eleven primary and 27 revision ACL reconstructions were identified. The mean AA in patients undergoing primary ACL reconstruction was higher than control (67.45° ± 11.30° vs 51.5° ± 10.8°, P < .001). A significantly elevated AA was also found in those undergoing revision ACL surgery (61.8° ± 7.51° vs 51.5° ± 10.8°, P < .001). In addition, the HNOR was significantly lower in the ACL group (0.12 ± 0.03 vs 0.14 ± 0.04, P = .0304). Acetabular morphology was similar between groups (LCEA, ACL 31.97° ± 5.04° vs control 30.01° ± 5.17°, P = .0549; COS, ACL 9 of 38 (23.7%) vs control 18 of 76 (23.7%), P = 1.00). Conclusion An association exists between radiographic cam morphology of the hip and patients who previously underwent ACLR. Level of Evidence III, retrospective comparison study.","journal":"Arthroscopy Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation","year":2021,"id":208376,"datarank":0.0,"base_score":0.0,"endowment":0.0,"self_citation_contribution":0.0,"citation_network_contribution":0.0,"self_endowment_contribution":0.0,"citer_contribution":0.0,"corpus_percentile":null,"corpus_rank":null,"citation_count":3,"citer_count":0,"citers_with_citation_signal":0,"citers_with_endowment":0,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"is_dataset":false,"is_dataset_confidence":0.9422,"is_data_producer":false,"deposit_databanks":null,"is_oa":true,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"has_version_chain":false,"published_date":"2021-01-01","fair_score":null,"fair_percentile":null,"algorithm_id":"datarank_citation_only_1hop_v6","ranking_scope":"data_only","authors":[{"id":794952,"name":"Kushtrim Grezda","orcid":"0000-0002-5305-1974","position":1,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":701862,"name":"Michael Willey","orcid":"0000-0002-6922-8471","position":2,"is_corresponding":false},{"id":447546,"name":"Robert W.
