[Objective] To explore the effect of motor control training (MCT) on femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) . [Methods] From May 2017 to July 2022, 45 patients with FAI were divided into two groups according to random number table method. Among them, 23 pa- tients were added motor control training on the basis of routine rehabilitation (the training group), while the other 22 patients received routine rehabilitation therapy only (the routine group). The data regarding therapy period and follow-up were compared between the two groups. [Results] There were no significant differences in treatment cycle, treatment frequency and VAS score for treatment compliance between the two groups (P＞0.05). Over time in follow- up period lasted for (8.2±3.1) months, VAS scores for pain, hip flexion strength and hip extension strength significantly improved in both groups (P＜0.05), the Harris score and SEBT score also improved in both groups, which proved statisti- cally significant in the training group (P＜0.05), while not statistically significant in the routine group (P＞0.05). At the latest follow-up, the training group proved significantly superior to the routine group in terms of pain VAS score [(2.2±1.0) vs (3.5±1.0), P＜0.05], Harris score [(79.4±6.9) vs (65.2±6.2), P＜0.05], hip flexor strength [(44.8±9.1)Nm vs (35.9 ±8.2)Nm, P＜0.05], and hip extensor strength [(68.4±6.7)Nm vs (56.3±7.0)Nm, P＜0.05] and SEBT score [(92.2±14.2) vs (81.6±17.0), P＜0.05]. [Conclusion] The MCT does effectively relieve pain, in- crease hip muscle strength and coordination ability, and improve the overall stability of the hip for FAI.
