Ischiofemoral impingement refers to the impingement of soft tissues between the ischial tuberosity and lesser trochanter of the femur. Clinical presentation. Patients with ischiofemoral impingement present with chronic pain in the groin and/or buttock, without a history of traumatic injury.
Ischiofemoral impingement is an uncommon cause of buttock pain. Generally, we must rule out other reasons, such as sciatica, hamstring tendonitis, and sacroiliac joint arthritis. Nevertheless, simple treatments such as physical therapy and an ultrasound-guided cortisone injection are effective.
Hip impingement is a broad term used to describe conditions in which the ball and socket of the hip joint don’t fit together properly. It’s usually due to one of three main causes. First, the socket, also called the acetabulum, may develop abnormally as a child grows.
There are two main causes of hip impingement: A deformity of the ball at the top of the femur (called cam impingement). If the head is not shaped normally, the abnormal part of the head...
Ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) is a rare cause of hip pain first described in three patients after total hip arthroplasty and proximal femoral osteotomy [1]. More recently, IFI affecting native hip joints—even in childhood—has been described, along with a variety of underlying pathologies [2–4].
Ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) is an uncommon cause of pain and snapping in the hip, buttock, and groin. The pathology occurs because of a reduction of space between the lesser trochanter (LT) and the lateral border of the ischium, which leads to entrapment of the quadratus femoris (QF) muscle .
Ischiofemoral Impingement (IFI) is a condition that affects the hip joint, causing discomfort and restricted movement. This condition occurs when there is abnormal contact between the ischium, a bone in the pelvis, and the femur, the thigh bone.
Ischiofemoral impingement (IFI) is an often unrecognized cause of hip pain caused by abnormal contact between the lesser trochanter and the ischium. To date, surgical treatment for those whose pain is not relieved by activity modification and steroid injections has not been defined.
Ischiofemoral impingement syndrome (IFI) is an underrecognized form of atypical, extra-articular hip impingement defined by hip pain related to narrowing of the space between the ischial tuberosity and the femur.
Who gets ischiofemoral impingement? Short answer: Anyone with a hip and pelvis, but especially active females. Deeper dive: IFI is common in runners with long stride lengths, race walkers, ballet dancers, and rowers who force themselves into hip extension at the end of their stroke phase.
