Abbreviations: SD, standard deviation; FVMRI, femoral version as measured by magnetic resonance imaging; deg, degrees; ROM, range of motion; ER90°, external rotation ROM with hip flexed to 90°; IR90° internal rotation ROM with hip flexed to 90°; ER0°, external rotation ROM with hip in neutral flexion/extension; IR0°, internal rotation ROM with hip in neutral flexion/extension; ROMdif90°, difference in ROM with hip flexed to 90°; ROMdif0°, difference in ROM with hip in neutral flexion/extension
Data from one participant with chronic hip joint pain was omitted secondary to pain limiting end range of motion.
ROM difference was calculated by subtracting ER ROM from IR ROM
