Iliopsoas Irritation as Presentation of Head-Neck Corrosion After Total Hip Arthroplasty: A Case Series.

Corrosion of modular components at the femoral neck remains a complication of total hip arthroplasty (THA). The authors have found the iliopsoas sign (pain on resisted flexion of the hip) to be suggestive of femoral component corrosion. These cases represented 8 of 120 revision hip arthroplasties (7%) performed at the authors' institution.
