The ischiofemoral ligament (ischiocapsular ligament or ischiocapsular band) consists of a triangular band of strong fibers on the posterior side of the hip joint. [ 1 ] It is one of the four ligaments that reinforce the hip joint. It attaches to the posterior surface of the acetabular rim and acetabular labrum, and extends around the ...
Shoulder impingement syndrome. Shoulder impingement syndrome is a syndrome involving tendonitis (inflammation of tendons) of the rotator cuff muscles as they pass through the subacromial space, the passage beneath the acromion. It is particularly associated with tendonitis of the supraspinatus muscle. [1] This can result in pain, weakness, and ...
Click image to see video illustration of the three types. Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition involving one or more anatomical abnormalities of the hip joint, which is a ball and socket joint. [1] It is a common cause of hip pain and discomfort in young and middle-aged adults. [2]
Deep gluteal syndrome describes the non- discogenic extrapelvic entrapment of the sciatic nerve in the deep gluteal space. [1] In simpler terms this is sciatica due to nerve irritation in the buttocks rather than the spine or pelvis. It is an extension of non-discogenic sciatic nerve entrapment beyond the traditional model of piriformis ...
In addition, patients present with hip pain and an increased signal intensity of the MRI of the quadratus femoris have been shown to also have a significantly narrower ischiofemoral space compared to the general populace. The ischiofemoral impingement may be a cause of the hip pain associated with quadratus femoris tendinitis. [5]
An arthroscopic probe is seen at the junction of the labrum and acetabular rim. Hip arthroscopy was initially used for the diagnosis of unexplained hip pain, but is now widely used in the treatment of conditions both in and outside the hip joint itself. The most common indication is for the treatment of FAI (femoral acetabular impingement) [5 ...
An arthroscopic probe is seen at the junction of the labrum and acetabular rim. An acetabular labrum tear or hip labrum tear is a common injury of the acetabular labrum resulting from a number of causes including running, hip dislocation, and deterioration with ageing. Most are thought to result from a gradual tear due to repetitive microtrauma.
