The more common lateral extra-articular type of snapping hip syndrome occurs when the iliotibial band, tensor fasciae latae, or gluteus medius tendon slides back and forth across the greater trochanter. This normal action becomes a snapping hip syndrome when one of these connective tissue bands thickens and catches with motion.
Bernhardt-Roth syndrome [1] Innervation of lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh (shaded area) on the right leg. Specialty: Neurology: Symptoms: Pain, dysthesias, paresthesias, and hyperesthesia on the anterolateral thigh [2] Causes: Anything that compresses the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve, such as tight fitting clothes at the waist and ...
The tensor fasciae latae (or tensor fasciæ latæ or, formerly, tensor vaginae femoris) is a muscle of the thigh. Together with the gluteus maximus, it acts on and is continuous with the iliotibial band, which attaches to the tibia. The muscle assists in keeping the balance of the pelvis while standing, walking, or running.
• Tensor fasciae latae: Located on the outside of your upper thigh, it works with the rectus femoris to flex the hip and contributes to hip abduction and internal rotation.
Iliotibial band syndrome is one of the leading causes of lateral knee pain in runners. The iliotibial band is a thick band of fascia composing the tendon of the tensor fasciae latae muscle. It is located on the lateral aspect of the knee, extending from the outside of the pelvis, over the hip and knee, and inserting just below the knee. The ...

hip abducts during the test- tight tensor fasciae latae; knee extension occurs- tight rectus femoris; Lateral rotation of tibia- tight biceps femoris; The hip flexion contracture is physiologic in the first 3 months of life and if it is absent in this period it may be a sign of developmental dysplasia of the hip.
Surrounding structures such as the tensor fasciae latae and the greater trochanter may also be affected. The injury results from the crushing of soft tissue between a hard object and the iliac crest. The injury results from the crushing of soft tissue between a hard object and the iliac crest.
