This article provides concise and up-to-date information on the most common hip pathologies that affect adolescent athletes. We cover the evaluation and treatment of avulsion injuries, stress fractures, slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE), femoroacetabular impingement, developmental dysplasia of the hip, Legg-Calve-Perthes disease, and coxa saltans focusing on minimizing advanced imaging and using conservative therapy when applicable. Although this is not an all-encompassing list of disorders, it is key to understand these hip pathologies because these injuries occur commonly and can also have detrimental complications if not diagnosed and addressed early, especially SCFE and femoral neck stress fractures.

Objectives: The aim of this study was to measure the reliability of the expanded and revised Melbourne Cerebral Palsy Hip Classification System (r-MCPHCS) across different medical specialties.
Patients And Methods: Anteroposterior pelvic radiographs of a total of 44 patients (20 males, 24 females; median 16.7 years; range, 12 to 32 years) with cerebral palsy (CP) were analyzed between January 2005 and December 2020.

Background: The muscles that encase the hip serve a crucial role in both joint stability and functional efficacy, and as developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) progresses, the surrounding musculature may undergo specific adaptations that reduce joint stability, thereby exacerbating dislocation. Yet, the exact nature of changes in muscle morphology and quality remains inadequately investigated. This study aimed to compare magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluations of the iliopsoas and other hip flexor and extensor muscles in children with unilateral DDH before and after treatment.

Adverse local tissue reaction (ALTR) and osteolysis formation are more frequently described complications after total hip arthroplasty (THA) with metal-on-metal bearings. In this report, we present a unique case of ALTR and osteolysis formation with ceramic-on-ceramic bearing THA, which has been less commonly described in the existing literature. This rare case occurred in a 54-year-old patient who had a primary THA done 17 years prior to representing to our institution.

➢ Low back pain has a lifetime incidence of up to 84% and represents the leading cause of disability in the United States; 10% to 38% of cases can be attributed to sacroiliac joint (SIJ) dysfunction as an important pain generator.➢ Physical examination of the SIJ, including >1 provocation test (due to their moderate sensitivity and specificity) and examination of adjacent joints (hip and lumbar spine) should be routinely performed in all patients presenting with low back, gluteal, and posterior hip pain.➢ Radiographic investigations including radiographs, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging with protocols optimized for the visualization of the SIJs may facilitate the diagnosis of common pathologies.

Herein, we described a case of small bowel Crohn's disease with recurrent, unexplained fevers, pain in the right lower back, hip, and groin area over 20 months. The patient did not present any gastrointestinal symptoms and colonoscopy showed no abnormalities. Imaging revealed a liver abscess and multiple lesions with pneumatosis in the muscles of the right lower back region.
