A cam lesion is a bump on the edge of the femoral head. When your provider treats either of these conditions, you’ll use the cam/pincer lesion treatment codes. “These are newer codes, and orthopedic surgeons are doing them a lot more frequently,” said Felt.
A CAM lesion is the formation of extra bone on the head of the femur (ball) resulting in a 'bump'. This extra bone can cause pain as it impinges with the acetabulum (socket) with joint movement.
Cam deformities describe an abnormal anterosuperior femoral head–neck junction, whereas pincer deformities describe abnormalities in the shape or orientation of the acetabulum (Figure 1). Some patients have both deformities, designated mixed pathology.
What is a cam deformity or a cam lesion? The hip is a ball and a socket joint. The ball is called the femoral head and the socket is called the acetabulum. In patients with a cam deformity, the head is not perfectly spherical and does not fit well into the socket.
Types of FAI At times both CAM and Pincer type impingement occur in the same hip, creating a mixed presentation. The CAM for (CAM comes from the Dutch word meaning “cog”) describes a shape of the ball (femoral head) that is aspherical or not perfectly round.
In Cam impingement, there is a loss of head-neck offset (the neck is as wide or prominent as the head), limiting the amount of hip flexion that can be achieved before the femoral neck abuts the acetabular socket. Pincer Impingement refers to an excessively deep acetabular socket, restraining normal hip range of motion.
Cam impingement occurs because the ball-shaped end of the femur (femoral head) is not perfectly round. This interferes with the femoral head's ability to move smoothly within the hip socket. Pincer impingement involves excessive coverage of the femoral head by the acetabulum.
Cam morphology refers to an abnormal morphology of the femoral head-neck junction interlinked with an osseous asphericity of the femoral head. It is one possible cause of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI).
Current research suggests that these cam lesions develop during adolescence, often when the growth plates are open. Participating in certain physical activity may lead to conflict between the ball and the socket, stimulating the bone to grow and create the cam lesion.
Cam-type morphology occurs when an abnormally shaped femoral head/neck has a region of increased radius forming a bump or ridge (1). During motions of flexion and internal rotation, an increased amount of shear stress is placed on the labral cartilage by the abnormal contact with the enlarged femoral head/neck (2).

Cam: This type results from a bony growth at the head of the femur. In some cases, physical activity may cause this growth to occur. Pincer: Caused by extra bone growth in the hip socket, this growth often happens during a child's development.
A cam lesion is a bump on the edge of the femoral head. When your provider treats either of these conditions, you’ll use the cam/pincer lesion treatment codes. “These are newer codes, and orthopedic surgeons are doing them a lot more frequently,” said Felt. “And they’re doing them really well; now a patient can come in with this disorder, ...
Pay attention to exceptions: As you might expect, codes 29914 and 29915 will feature most heavily in cam/pincer lesion treatments.
29916 with labral repair. While these codes have been around awhile, they represent relatively recent medical advances, Felt said. Before doctors could treat cam/pincer lesions arthroscopically, they had to treat the lesions via open surgery.
