Abstract Background: Snapping hip is a common clinical condition, characterized by an audible or palpable snap of the hip joint. The snap can be perceived at the lateral side of the hip (external snapping hip), or at the medial (internal snapping hip). It is usually asymptomatic, but in few cases, in particular in athletes, the snap become painful (snapping hip syndrome-SHS). Materials and methods: This is a narrative review of current literature, which describes the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of SHS. Conclusion: The pathogenesis of SHS is multifactorial.

  • Iliopsoas Pathology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
    Iliopsoas Pathology, Diagnosis, and Treatment Christian N. Anderson, MD KEYWORDS Iliopsoas Psoas Coxa saltans interna Snapping hip Iliopsoas bursitis Iliopsoas tendinitis Iliopsoas impingement KEY POINTS The iliopsoas musculotendinous unit is a powerful hip flexor used for normal lower extrem- ity function, but disorders of the iliopsoas can be a significant source of groin pain in the athletic population. Arthroscopic release of the iliopsoas tendon and treatment of coexisting intra-articular ab- normality is effective for patients with painful iliopsoas snapping or impingement that is refractory to conservative treatment. Tendon release has been described at 3 locations: in the central compartment, the periph- eral compartment, and at the lesser trochanter, with similar outcomes observed between the techniques. Releasing the tendon lengthens the musculotendinous unit, resulting in transient hip flexor weakness that typically resolves by 3 to 6 months postoperatively. INTRODUCTION The iliopsoas musculotendinous unit is a powerful hip flexor that is important for normal hip strength and function. Even so, pathologic conditions of the iliopsoas have been implicated as a significant source of anterior hip pain. Iliopsoas disorders have been shown to be the primary cause of chronic groin pain in 12% to 36% of ath- letes and are observed in 25% to 30% of athletes presenting with an acute groin injury.1–4 Described pathologic conditions include iliopsoas bursitis, tendonitis, impingement, and snapping. Acute trauma may result in injury to the musculotendi- nous unit or avulsion fracture of the lesser trochanter. Developing an understanding of the anatomy and function of the musculotendinous unit is necessary to accurately determine the diagnosis and formulate an appropriate treatment strategy for disorders of the iliopsoas.

  • Clinical Applications of Dynamic Functional Musculoskeletal Ultrasound
    Reports in Medical Imaging Dovepress open access to scientific and medical research Open Access Full Text Article REVIEW Clinical applications of dynamic functional musculoskeletal ultrasound Jonelle Petscavage-Thomas Abstract: There is an increasing trend in medicine to utilize ultrasound for diagnosis of Department of Radiology, Penn musculoskeletal pathology. Although magnetic resonance imaging provides excellent spatial State Hershey Medical Center, resolution of musculoskeletal structures in multiple imaging planes and is generally the cross- Hershey, PA, USA sectional modality of choice, it does not provide dynamic functional assessment of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Dynamic maneuvers with ultrasound provide functional data and have been shown to be accurate for diagnosis. Ultrasound is also less expensive, portable, and more readily available. This article will review the common snapping, impingement, and friction syn- dromes imaged with dynamic ultrasound. It will also discuss future areas of research, including musculoskeletal sonoelastography. For personal use only. Keywords: snapping, dynamic, ultrasound, functional, musculoskeletal Introduction Ultrasound image resolution has substantially improved over the past few decades, enabling increased clinical application. Unlike magnetic resonance (MR) and com- puted tomography (CT) imaging, which provide structural information, sonography allows acquisition of dynamic information. In dynamic ultrasound imaging, the patient performs a movement while the physician holds the ultrasound probe relative to an anatomic landmark.1 This has particularly useful applications for musculoskeletal (MSK) imaging, where several pathological conditions are elicited only through patient Reports in Medical Imaging downloaded from https://www.dovepress.com/ by 54.70.40.11 on 29-Dec-2018 movement.

  • Snapping Hip Syndrome - Children
    Snapping Hip Syndrome - Children What is Snapping Hip Syndrome? Snapping hip syndrome is a commonly seen condition in children and adolescence and in most cases can be treated with basic care and exercises. It is an umbrella term for a variety of causes of hip pain and/or clicking. • Hip pain may cause difficulty when walking and can also be painful to lie on. • With snapping hip syndrome you may experience a clicking or snapping sensation/ sound around the front, back or side of the hip joint. This may be bothersome for you, however if your hip is not painful the click or snap is nothing to be concerned about. In most cases snapping hip is managed conservatively, (no surgical input required), and home treatments may be sufficient in managing the condition. Snapping hip syndrome has two main causes: • External (muscles involved) – There are two main areas where muscles can cause snapping/ clicking. 1. The Iliotibial Band (IT band) which is a thick piece of soft tissue that runs down the outside of your hip joint, into your thigh and ends at your knee. Snapping hip syndrome occurs when the tendon slides over the bony prominence on the outside of your hip and creates a ‘cracking’ or ‘snapping’ sound. This most commonly happens when the tendon is tight following a growth spurt. This may also cause you to have knee pain. 2. The Iliopsoas tendon (muscle at front of hip), which typically causes a snapping sensation in the front part of your hip as the tendon slips over a bit of bone on the pelvis.

  • Hip-Pelvis-354-373.Pdf
    The Body SNAPPING HIP Snapping hip syndrome is more common in athletes due to repeated strenuous movements of the hip, and it is mainly caused by a tendon catching on a bony prominence and then releasing, much like when you pluck a guitar string. There are three main causes of snapping hip syndrome: • The greater trochanter is the bony protrusion you can feel on the side at the top of your leg near the hip joint. The iliotibial band (ITB) is a strong and broad tendon that passes over this area and down to the knee on the outside of the leg. The snapping of the ITB across the greater trochanter is the primary cause of snapping hip. • The most important muscle for bringing the thigh forward (hip flexor) is the iliopsoas major muscle, which runs from the lower spine inside the torso and then across the front of the hip joint. It can snap across the pelvis, and this condition is also known as ‘dancer’s hip’. • Although not so common, the cartilage in the hip joint can sometimes tear, causing noise as the hip moves. Diagnosis is by physiotherapy assessment, ultrasound scan, MRI, or biomechanical assessment, and treatment can include: physiotherapy, strengthening and stretching rehab, shockwave, corticosteroid injection, and if non-resolving, surgery. Do you get brief, sudden pain down the front of your thigh, or sudden twinges with your leg giving way, meaning you are unable to walk for a while? It can just be increasing knee stiffness and pain, but you may have the following: 354 Appendix 1 LOOSE BODY The top of the shin bone (tibia) has a coating of cartilage, as well as two meniscal cups for the long thigh bone (femur) to move in.

  • COMMON INJURIES in DANCERS Marisa Hentis PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS
    COMMON INJURIES IN DANCERS Marisa Hentis PT, DPT, OCS, CSCS Brooke Winder, PT, DPT, OCS Dancers are aesthetic athletes who are highly susceptible to musculoskeletal injuries throughout their careers. Dance requires a combination of high-level strength, flexibility, and coordination, and dancers must complete intense performance activities while simultaneously making them appear effortless. They also spend hours during classes, rehearsals, and performances repeating similar tasks in order to perfect their art form. 20%-84% of professional dancers have at least one musculoskeletal injury in their career,1 and professional dancers can expect to be injured at least once per year. 2 Overuse injuries are common in dancers3 likely due to the high volumes of training, decreased rest breaks, and the lack of an “off-season.” Dancers often use their “rest breaks” to supplement their training programs with summer or winter intensives or practicing multiple genres throughout the week.4 Overtraining patterns can lead to chronic pain and overuse injuries if not addressed by a healthcare provider. Foot and Ankle Ankle Sprain Up to 77% of dance injuries occur in the lower extremity.5 The foot and ankle is the most common area of injury in many dance forms,1,3 with sprains, tendinopathies, and stress fractures occurring frequently. Ankle sprains are the most common, particularly in ballet and modern dancers.6 This injury is often attributed to an unexpected landing from a jump or a turn, improper alignment of the foot and ankle during demi-pointe or pointe work, or poorly fitted shoes. Despite ankle sprains being common in the performing arts, many dancers do not seek medical advice and they often experience long-term problems after ankle sprains.3,6 Tendinopathies and Posterior Impingement Tendinopathies or tendinitis of the foot and ankle in dancers is often related to muscle- tendon overuse and an imbalance of muscle strength.
