The concept of psoas impingement secondary to a tight or inflamed iliopsoas tendon causing impingement of the anterior labrum during hip extension has been suggested. The purpose of this study was to assess the relationship between the lesser trochanteric version (LTV) in symptomatic patients with psoas impingement as compared with asymptomatic hips. The femoral neck version (FNV) and LTV were evaluated on axial magnetic resonance imaging, as well as the angle between LTV and FNV. Data from 12 symptomatic patients and 250 asymptomatic patients were analysed. The mean, range and standard deviations were calculated. Independent t-tests were used to determine differences between groups. The lesser trochanteric retroversion was significantly increased in patients with psoas impingement as compared with asymptomatic hips (-31.1° SD ± 6.5 versus -24.2° ± 11.5, P < 0.05). The FNV (9° ± 8.8 versus 14.1° ± 10.7, P > 0.05) and the angle between FNV and LTV (40.2° ± 9.7 versus 38.3° ± 9.6, P > 0.05) were not significantly different between groups. In conclusion, the lesser trochanteric retroversion is significantly increased in patients with psoas impingement as compared with asymptomatic hips.

A Multicenter Analysis of 3 Decades of Hip Arthroscopy: Evolving Techniques and Growing Patient Volumes From 1988 to 2022.

Article Synopsis
- The study analyzes the evolution and trends of hip arthroscopy procedures at three academic centers in the U.S. from 1988 to 2022.
- Over the years, the annual number of surgeries dramatically increased from an average of 3.2 per year (1988-2008) to 285.9 per year (2016-2022), reflecting a growing acceptance of the procedure.
- Key surgical techniques evolved, with a shift from primarily debridement (100%) in the early years to a predominance of labral repair (94%) and significant increases in cam resection (up to 86.9%) and capsular repair (up to 81%) by 2022.
Accuracy of ultrasound-guided iliopsoas tendon injection after total hip arthroplasty: a retrospective observational study.

Purpose: To describe and characterize the accuracy and benefit of a technique for performing ultrasound-guided needle placement for iliopsoas peritendon or bursa injections as an alternative method to fluoroscopic guidance.
Materials And Methods: Patients with a history of total hip arthroplasty who were referred by their orthopedic surgeon for iliopsoas peritendon or bursa corticosteroid injection for iliopsoas impingement syndrome between June 2017 and December 2019 were eligible for inclusion. Of these patients, 19 received a total of 26 ultrasound-guided needle placement followed by confirmatory fluoroscopic guidance prior to injection.
Association between cup fixation screw and iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty.

Department of Orthopaedical Surgery, Graduate School of Biomedical and Health Sciences, Hiroshima University, 1-2-3 Kasumi, Minami, Hiroshima, Japan.
Background: Iliopsoas impingement after total hip arthroplasty can result not only from acetabular cup but also from cup fixation screw. However, research addressing this screw impingement is scarce, leaving the details undetermined. This study aimed to elucidate the incidence and threshold of symptomatic iliopsoas impingement attributable to protrusion of the cup fixation screw into the iliopsoas muscle and to evaluate its impact on postoperative radiographic imaging findings and patient-reported outcome measures.

Article Synopsis
- Hip replacement surgery effectively relieves pain and enhances mobility, but some patients may experience post-surgery groin pain due to iliopsoas impingement (IPI), which can be hard to diagnose.
- This study evaluates the success rates, revision rates, and complications of arthroscopic and endoscopic surgery for treating IPI, providing insights into their effectiveness and risks.
- The research found that both surgical techniques lead to positive outcomes for patients, with arthroscopic methods yielding slightly better results, but both methods carry mild risks like pain and infection.
Psoas Muscle Impingement by a Lumbar Disc-Osteophyte Complex: A Case Report.

Psoas tendon impingement is not a frequently encountered condition, but impingement at the muscular level is not reported in the literature. The term refers to the mechanical impingement of the psoas muscle with secondary myositis. We report a case of psoas muscle impingement by a lumbar disc-osteophyte complex.
